RTI - Response to Intervention

Is my student responding to the strategy interventions I use? How do I know? What evidence do I have based on my observations and assessments? Am I differentiating my instruction to meet the needs of my reader/writer? Am I linking reading and writings so that my student sees that what he knows in reading will help in writing and what he knows in writing will help him in reading?
