Berkowitz, MS, educational consultant, Jewish Family and Childrens Service, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"As educators, we too often try to solve problems and address issues alone, when in fact we should be teaming with other like-minded professionals. In this readable and relevant text, the authors lay out a framework to help navigate the terrain between ELLs, intervention, and designation for special education. They provide a clear framework for the implementation of culturally responsive RTI for our second language learners. This theoretically grounded but practical text should be a guide and resource for all professionals involved with both ELL instruction and the provision of intervention within RTI."—Richard D. McCallum, PhD, Graduate School of Education, University of California–Berkeley"What happens when RTI meets ELL? Using evidence-based research and practices, Hudspath-Niemi and Conroy offer alternative assessments to meet the changing demands of students with linguistic differences. This is an excellent contribution to the field of school psychology and will serve as a roadmap to further support the appropriate identification of students needing special services."—Yuma Tomes, PhD, director and associate professor at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine Review Quote " Implementing Response-to-Intervention to Address the Needs of English-Language Learners addresses the pressing issues facing teachers with any student whose primary language is not English and who may have disabilities.
