Observations:
2014 Composite Score: 2015 Composite Score needed: (add 0.5 to 2013-14 composite score) ___
Tier: (circle one) A B C
TEACHER / FACULTY SIGNATURES :
Step 5 Enter anecdotal data from I-ELP about student’s educational and personal background that may significantly impact language acquisition and achievement. For example, does the student have limited to no formal education; were they tested on the correct tier; have they been in the country for more than 5 years; do they have any exposure to English outside of school?
Anecdotal Data:
STUDENT LEARNING AND INSTRUCTIONAL GOALS Step 6
Create student learning goals as measured by monthly formative assessments, like WIDA rubrics: Student will make progress in (Reading Writing Listening Speaking) …
Step 7 Assign instructional goals (of specific teaching practices/strategies) aimed at reinforcing progress of the learning goals: Teacher(s) will…
Set Monthly Dates for Goal Setting with Classroom Teachers
• Work Samples• Teacher Observations• Formative Assessments• Effective Strategies
SUPPORTING ELs IN CLASSROOM SETTINGSMaintain predictable and consistent classroom management
routines, aided by diagrams, lists and easy-to-read schedules displayed prominently in the learning space, to which the teacher refers frequently.
SUPPORTING ELs IN CLASSROOM SETTINGS
Utilize graphic organizers to make content and the relationships among concepts and different lesson elements visually explicit.
SUPPORTING ELs IN CLASSROOM SETTINGS
Provide additional time and opportunities for practice during the school day-remember there may be difficulties completing assignments outside of school.
SUPPORTING ELs IN CLASSROOM SETTINGS
Provide redundant key information-visual cues, pictures and physical gestures about lesson content and classroom procedures.storm
thunderlightning
SUPPORTING ELs IN CLASSROOM SETTINGS
Identify, highlight, and clarify difficult words and passages within texts to facilitate comprehension and emphasize vocabulary development.
SUPPORTING ELs IN CLASSROOM SETTINGS
Help students consolidate text knowledge by providing opportunities for teacher, student and ELs to summarize and paraphrase.
SUPPORTING ELs IN CLASSROOM SETTINGSGive students extra practice in reading words, sentences, and
stories to build linguistic fluency. Every content teacher is a reading teacher.
SUPPORTING ELs IN CLASSROOM SETTINGSAdjust instruction (teacher vocabulary, rate of speech, sentence
complexity, and expectations for student language production) according to the ELL students’ language proficiency level.
Target both CCRS and WIDA Language Development Standards in every lesson.
Accommodated AssessmentA short assessment that evaluates only the essential ideas and academic vocabulary that the EL was required to learn.• True/false or yes/no• Multiple choice with two answers• Word banks provided• Matching with a limited number of
choices• Use instructional materials for
assessment purposes
Grading and Retention Guidelines for EL Students-Please refer to your ALSDE State EL Policies and
Procedures ManualGradingGrading of ELs should be based on students’ level of English proficiency. The teacher ensures this through the continual use of accommodations and assessments according to the students’ I-ELP. This complies with the federal law (No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). Appropriate instruction and differentiation must be adjusted according to language proficiency level in order to appropriately accommodate the student. Documentation of these components (lesson plans, work samples, and ongoing assessments) should be maintained by the classroom teacher.
Grading and Retention Guidelines for EL Students-Please refer to your ALSDE State EL Policies and
Procedures ManualRetentionRetention of ELs shall not be based solely upon level of English language proficiency (Section I, Part G, Guidelines to Satisfy Legal Requirements of Lau v. Nichols). Prior to considering retention of an EL, the following points should be addressed by the EL Committee:• What is the student’s level of English language proficiency?• Has an Individual English Language Plan (I-ELP) been implemented to document
classroom modifications and student progress?• To ensure meaningful participation, are classroom accommodations being made in
the areas of: - Teacher lesson delivery at student’s level of English proficiency?- Activities and assignments?- Homework?- Formal and informal assessments (e.g., quizzes and tests)?
• How much individual English language development instruction is the student receiving during the school day?
• Has an alternate grading strategy been implemented (e.g., a portfolio, checklist, teacher observation, or rubric assessment on content and language objectives)?
• Has the student’s classroom teacher been adequately trained with EL instructional and assessment strategies specifically designed for students learning English?
• Do the reports cards indicate that students were graded according to their I-ELPs?
Expectations for Next Technical Assistance
Meeting
• Bring Goal Setting Forms for Discussion• Discuss Strategies• Reevaluate District Policies that Support Goal
