CTEL Text: Chapters 4 & 5Participant Manual: pp. 65-76
(012) Key Components of SDAIE• Tap into prior knowledge• Contextualize the lesson• Provide a positive affective domain
• Teach study skills• Modify the use of the textbook
(012) Scaffolding Strategies
• Provides a personal connection between learner and topic. Builds on known concepts
• Helps simplify complex concepts. Creates an experiential environment
• The more familiar students are with the features of the text, the more successful…
• Clarifies procedures and expectations• Fosters autonomy through self monitoring• Pre-teach terms so they will be understood in the lesson
(012) Scaffolding Strategies
• Students extend their understanding by applying it in novel formats
• To promote critical thinking skills• Learning is most effective when students have opportunities to discuss and process content
• Different ways of determining student performance to provide more accurate evidence as to whether learning has taken place
• Clarifies misconceptions and further develops proficiency in English
(012) SDAIE Lesson Plan Format 151-160• Grade Level• Content Standard• ELD Standard• Assessment• Learning Opportunities
• Into• Through • Beyond
(012) SDAIE Lesson Plan
• Grade Level-5• Content Standard - 5.3.2 Students know when liquid water evaporates, it turns into water vapor in the air and can reappear as a liquid when cooled or as a solid if cooled below the freezing point of water.
• ELD Standard - Write brief expository compositions(e.g. description, comparison and contrast, cause and effect, and problem and solution) that include a thesis and some points of support.
• Assessment - Students will write a one paragraph composition comparing and contrasting the different forms of water.
(012) SDAIE Lesson Plan
Learning Opportunities• Into - Using the think-pair-share cooperative grouping model,
students will write brief 1-2 sentence narratives of any experience that they have had with the different forms of water. As the T-P-S model dictates, they will pair up to relate their sentences to a partner, then share out in table groups. -Students will read summary of the lesson reading in table groups in order to preload content. -Class will review the concept of comparing and contrasting using actual forms of water.
• Through - Using a graphic organizer that pictorially represents the water cycle, students will develop understanding of the relationships the different forms of water have with one another. Students will then compare and contrast their charts with the charts of table mates. -Students will develop a paragraph comparing and contrasting the different elements of the water cycle based on teacher-modeled representation.
• Beyond - Students will create a haiku that describes water in its liquid, solid and gaseous forms
(012) SDAIE Lesson Reflection
How is this lesson different for English Learners? What makes it MORE than just good teaching?

A test is reliable if it yields predictably similar scores over several administrations.
(002) Traditional Assessment 99•Limits of Traditional(Standardized) Assessments•Time•Linguistic Bias•Cultural Bias•Test Anxiety•Equivalent Versions•Rapport
(002) Textbook Tests 101• Purpose - to provide a direct measure of what was presented in the text

• Modifications - partner work, supplemental text features
(002) Performance-Based Tests 101• Purpose – designed to offer information about a student’s proficiency
• Feature - open-ended tasks• Limitations - time
• Modifications - design groups for optimal language performance, scoring rubrics
(002) Curriculum Tasks 102• Purpose – measure the success of activities performed in class
• Feature – add-on assessment unnecessary
• Limitations – difficult to assess skill level independent of help
• Modifications - partner work, scoring rubrics
(002) Authentic Tests 102• Purpose - assess proficiency on a task commonly found outside the classroom

Principles of Standards-Based Assessment and Instruction
CTEL Text: Chapter 3Participant Manual: pp. 85-94
(001) ELD Standards• ELD Standards are a pathway to the ELA standards for ELs.
• The ELD standards establish clear performance expectations for ELs. The ELD standards are to be used to plan/provide instruction for English Language Development.
• The ELD standards are based on proficiency levels and grade-level spans in L/S, R, and W.
• The ELD standards are based on the same components as the ELA standards. An English Learner may require more explicit steps to reach a standard.
• The CELDT is aligned with the ELD standards.
(001) Standards-Based…
1. STANDARDS inform ASSESSMENT2. ASSESSMENT informs INSTRUCTION3. Students engage in LEARNING4. Students DEMONSTRATE what they
know5. Students experience LEARNING, or6. Teacher RETEACHES
(001) Standards and EL Students
• ELs must have access to the core in order to meet standards.
• Teachers must develop benchmarks to show that these students are moving toward the standards.
• Teachers must teach to the ELD standards.
