MDE and the MiMTSS Technical Assistance Center are pleased to announce the release of the document, "Intensifying Literacy Instruction: Essential Practices!" This document focuses on the advanced tiers of an MTSS framework (Tiers 2 and 3); however, it can and should impact Tier 1, class-wide instruction since an effective Tier 1 instruction supports all learners regardless of their pressing needs. This document describes five practices and considerations for understanding how students' learning and behavior are enhanced.

The MiMTSS TA Center is pleased to offer a limited number of copies of this document through the Kalamazoo Regional Education Service Agency (KRESA) Print Center. These copies must be ordered by a school, district, or ISD. There is a minimum order of 10 copies and a maximum order of 25 copies. The free copies are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please use the Intensifying Literacy Instruction: Essential Practices order form to place your order. If you have any questions, please email info@mimtss.org.
