Description Despite proven effectiveness of Tier II interventions in the United States' elementary school education system, there are barriers to implementing effective Tier II interventions. General education classes contain a wide range of academic levels with some students not achieving previous grade level proficiency. Two options exist at the end of an academic year, to either socially promote or grade retain students who do not show proficiency. Studies affirm that neither social promotion nor grade retention alone are effective. The multi-tier system of support (MTSS) structural model has been put into place in education systems to support struggling students toward proficiency. Within the MTSS model, Tier II is a targeted effort to reinforce students' education. One of the barriers to implementing effective Tier II interventions is the lack of highly trained intervention aides. For this purpose mathematics curriculum was designed to support effective instruction in Tier II mathematics interventions.
