Language Demands from the Common Core State Standards
The Common Core State Standards set high expectations for all students to participate in academic discourse across the disciplines.
5
Student Expectations• To sustain dialogue on a range of topics and in a
variety of content areas• Interpret the meaning of informational and literary
texts• Explain their thinking and build on others ideas• Construct arguments and justify their position
persuasively with sound evidence• Effectively produce written and oral texts in a variety
of disciplines for a variety of audiences and purposes

• Aligned with and to be used in tandem with CCSS for ELA & Literacy and applied to both ELD and content area instruction
• Highlight and amplify the critical language, knowledge about language, and skills using language in the CCSS in order for ELs to be simultaneously successful in school while they are developing language
• Provide fewer, clearer, higher standards so teachers can focus on what’s most importantOverview of the California English Language Development Standards and Proficiency Level Descriptors, p 14.

Key Shifts1999 CA ELD Standards
From… 2012 CA ELD Standards
To…
ELD Standards as “junior” ELA Standards or as an “onramp” to the ELA Standards
ELD Standards working intandem with ELA and other content standards and seen as the “diamond lane” for acceleration

ELD Standards
Key Shifts1999 CA ELD Standards
From… 2012 CA ELD Standards
To…
Simplified texts and activities, often separate from content knowledge
Complex texts and intellectually challenging activities with contentintegral to language learning
Spycher, 2012 10

Key ShiftsSentence to unpack:
Although many countries are addressing pollution, environmental degradation continues to create devastating human health problems each year.
11
Key ShiftsMeaning: Pollution is a big problem around the
world. Many countries are doing something
about pollution. Pollution destroys the environment. The health problems are really serious.

A Comprehensive System for Increasing English Learners’ Academic Achievement
23
What is A.L.L.?
A.L.L. is a multi-year comprehensive system designed to build instructional leadership and
teacher efficacy to apply research-basedpractices in classrooms that lead to increased
language proficiency and academic achievement for English learners.

Planning to Plan!
“Plans are nothing; Planning is everything.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower

Going Deeper with Planned Language Production
• Everyone speaking with support• Everyone is accountableTeacher-Whole ClassSmall GroupPartnersIndividual
27
Examples of Non-Accountable Responses
• Who knows what _______ means?• Can anyone tell me_______?• Who has an example of ______?• Would anyone like to share?• Share your answer with your neighbor.• Discuss these questions in your group.• Anytime we “call on someone” (with or
without sticks)
28
15
Frames vs. Stems
1. Why do we need them?2. What is the difference?
• Sentence frames TEACH language• Sentence stems or starters elicit student
thinking
29
Unstructured Prompt without a Frame or Starter
Prompt: How does your best friend get to school?Students do not ask each other the prompt. They just answer the question.
Answers:• She take the bus.• He walking to the school.• He ride his bike.• She drived with her mom.
30
16
Sentence Starters… Provide little structure for accurate asking or
response Leave it to students to figure out how to construct
the sentence Often result in erroneous language use.
Non-example:Prompt: How does your best friend get to school?Starter: My best friend____________________.
walking at the schoolwalks to the school
walked to school
31
Sentence Response Frames with a word bank and structured partners
A: How does your best friend get to school?B: My best friend ______s to school.
Verb Bank: (present tense +s)
walks
rides her bike
gets a ride

33
Stem & Frame Resources
• Look over the stem and frame resources in your packet.
• Note how they are different.
34
18
Quick Quiz: Frame or Stem?1. I discovered…2. The differences between _____________ and
____________ are____________( with prompt and word bank)
3. The writer mentions _______________________ and illustrates the point by emphasizing that ____________________________ (used after brainstorming).
4. I agree with _______’s idea and I’d like to add __________.
35
The key is to make an intentionalinstructional decision…
• Am I trying to start discussion?• Am I trying to teach language? If so, what
kind of language?• Would a sentence frame stifle creativity?• Would a sentence stem be too open?

PLP During the Opening & Presentation
How can we include Planned Language Production opportunities while using the following strategies in a lesson:
Choral Response Echo Repeat Turn to a partner Hand motions White boards or writing
I could use the _______ PLP strategy in my classroom when ___________________.
I would adapt the ______ PLP Strategy by ___________________
37
The “How” of the PLP: Choosing a Language Production Routine
• Once you have your frame or your stem, you must determine how students will practice…
• Small Group• Student to Student• Student to Teacher
38

Strategies in Action
Think about examples observed in the video of Planned Language Production opportunities or the use of sentence stems or sentence frames…An example of ________ was…Another example of ____ was… I’d like to add another example…

Language is a Vehicle to Understand Content
“Learning subject matter and work skills involves using language to structure
understanding and core knowledge, to connect concepts with other
understanding, and to practice multiple literacy skills within meaningful content-rich
activities.”
Alliance for Excellent Education, 201240
21
CCSS alone do not provide a pathway towards English
proficiency for ELs• New English Language Development
standards aligned to the CCSS (adopted November 2012)
• Implementation of CCSS must be accompanied by full implementation of the new ELD standards
Olsen, 2013 41

“The type of language we use in particular situations when
communicating with a particular set of people to meet the expectations
of a particular context”

Planned Language or Structured Oral Language Practice Routines Routines Description Face/Shoulder partners Face= across from you
Shoulder = beside you Clock partners Use a clock or other diagram, students sign each others at a specific time and
that is their partner (ie 2 o’clock partners) Read Aloud/Think Aloud Starts as a technique and then moves to a student metacognitive and cognitive
learning strategy where reader reads a section of text out loud and then thinks aloud about the contents of that section. Partner can enhance the learning strategy with use of strong questioning strategies.
Stay and Stray After working together in a group on a specific item, assignment, or topic, one or more group members stay with the group product while one or more group members rotate to other groups to learn and share.
Expert Groups Teacher determines several topics that are fun, interesting, important, and/or essential to the unit of study. Students then determine which topic they want to know more about or decide whether or not they are already experts in a specific topic. Groups are structured to present their expertise to the class
Inner/Outer Circle With A/B partners, two circles are created…an A circle that faces outward and the B circle that faces inward. The A/ B partner shares an idea and when the teacher prompts, all B’s move one partner to their right and share again.
Lines of Communication Same idea as inner/outer circles, but structured as two lines. Works well in smaller spaces.
Think – Pair – Share Students first have given the chance to think silently about an idea before they turn, pair with a partner and then share their thought or idea.
Think Write Share Similar to Think, Pair, Share, but students write thoughts instead of speaking them.
Predict (can be combined with Pair share)
Teacher prompts student to make a prediction about upcoming content or event.
Give one, Get one A modified brainstorm that provides for some structured sharing and interaction.
Quiz, Quiz, Trade
Students write a question and the answer on a sticky note. Students mingle through room to find a partner. Each person takes a turn asking his/her question and answering their partners. When complete, partners TRADE sticky notes and move to find a new partner.
Jigsaw Each member of a group is assigned some unique material to learn and teach the other group members. All students working on specific material work together.
Whip Around Students go around, with everyone in the group contributing an idea/answer. Numbered Heads A team is established and each member is given a number. The numbered
student is called or asked to give an idea/answer. Talking Stick Students pass any object that can serve as the talking stick around the group.
Teacher gives prompt and student with the talking stick speaks while everyone listens. Student passes stick when done and a new person has the opportunity to speak without interruption.
Talking Chips Each member receives the same number of chips. Each time a member wishes to speak, they put a chip in the center of the table. Once individuals have used up their chips, they can no longer speak. Process continues until everyone in the group has used up chips.
