=SAS training= PaTTAN November 12, 2009

Jay Scott - SAS is not the portal. The portal is the delivery method to get information to school districts about the 6 effective practices that are part of SAS.

Holly Jobe - Holly introduced the content advisors, CFF coach mentors and other people involved in the institute planning.

Angela Kirby-Wehr -
 * This training serves to give people a better conceptual understanding of SAS so that we can better understand the portal.
 * SAS is the interrelationship of all of the pieces that we know work best for students.
 * Response to Intervention is now known as Response to Instruction and Intervention. RtII is the assessment and instructional framework to implement Pennsylvania' Standards Aligned System. Response to Instruction and Intervention is for ALL students; we can't serve students unless they have a common foundation.
 * Materials and resources (units and lessons) will ensure that tier 1 of RtII happens for all students.

Tracy Ficca - Tracy introduced the jigsaw activity that we will do for 90 minutes. The room split into 6 groups, and each group looked at one circle in depth. Then each group presented the thoughts about their section to everyone.

SAS pairs: --interventions/assessment - must assess to intervene -materials & resources/instruction - always looking for M&R for instruction

-assessment/instruction Possibly also group based on unlikely pairs

-standards/instruction - standards should drive instruction -curriculum framework/interventions

We decided on:
 * standards/curriculum framework

-materials & resources/assessment

-instruction/interventions **
