AGENDA
V. Q and A
12

I. INSTRUCTION FOR EL’S IS CHANGING IN MASSACHUSETTS
1. Increase the rigor of
language instruction
by emphasizing
academic language
across content areas
2. Language instruction
must happen through
high-quality, well-
scaffolded content
instruction – not only
through ESL pull-out
classes
13

AGENDA
V. Q and A
14

II. THE IMPORTANCE OF LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Language objectives specifically identify:
1) The way students will use language to engage with the
content of the lesson and accomplish the content objective.
2) The specific components of academic language
(vocabulary, language structures, etc.) that students will need
to learn to accomplish the objective.
Before we start, what is a language objective?
15

II. THE IMPORTANCE OF LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
1. Planning
• How is language instruction integrated with content
• What academic language must students learn
2. Student Support
• What scaffolds must a teacher have ready.
3. Differentiation
• A “strand” of language objectives helps teachers set
appropriate objectives at different levels and better
differentiate instruction

19

WIDA does… WIDA does not…
• List a specific set of
standards or objectives
we MUST teach
• Provide a bank of every
language objective we
would ever need
• Provide tools that we can
use to build language
objectives for our
classrooms
• Provide a bank of sample
MPIs that we can transform
to create language
objectives that fit our
contexts
20

AGENDA
V. Q and A
21

IV. CREATING LANGUAGE OBJECITVES
• Language Objectives are not identical to MPIs and
should not be used interchangeably.
• A language objective is much like an MPI but is then
'transformed' by including both supports and the
levels it should be used for.
• You may need to tweak what we are presenting to
reflect processes in place in your district; we know
districts have different ways of doing this.
Let’s begin by addressing what may be some confusion

1. Set the Stage
• Know your students

• Identify content

• Language Domain:
Listening, Speaking, R
eading Writing
• Identify applicable
MPI
2. Craft Language
Objective
• Language Function to
describe what students
should do (CAN Do’s
are a great source)
• What supports do
students need
• Content/topic linked to
CCSS
• Customize to match
levels

29

IV. DIFFERENTIATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Students at different levels will require different supports.
GA Science Curriculum Frameworks
• S1E1: Student will observe, measure, and communicate
weather data to see patterns in weather and climate.
WIDA Standard 4: Language of Science
Content Objective
• SWBAT track daily weather on a class weather
chart, including temperature, wind direction, and
precipitation.
Let’s look at a 1st grade science standard:
30

Let’s differentiate language objectives for two groups of ELs
Levels 1-3 Levels 4-5
Name familiar objects in photographs or illustrations
associated with weather conditions (e.g. “cloud”).
We can use a Level 1 MPI as a resource…
Describe daily weather
conditions from
photographs and class
charts (i.e. Today the
weather is rainy.)
Compare daily weather
conditions across different
days using class charts (i.e. I
know Thursday was hotter than
Monday because_____ ).
Domain: SPEAKING
and transform it to fit our class:
31

Common Core State Standard
• RP.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and
mathematical problems.
WIDA Standard 3: Language of Mathematics
Content Objective
• SWBAT solve word problems involving unit rates.
• SWBAT justify their decisions based on unit rates in real-life
scenarios (e.g. choosing which car to buy based on gas mileage in
miles / gallon).
Let’s look at a 6th grade math standard:
32

Levels 1-3
Compare choices based on
real-life rate calculations
using a graphic organizer
and sentence frames (e.g.
_____ is greater than
_____).
Levels 4-5
Critique choices based on
others’ mathematical reasoning
from sample solutions to real-
life rate problems.
Domain: WRITING
List choices based on rate calculations in real-life situations
using templates and a word bank with a partner.
33

Common Core State Standard
• CCSS RL6.4 Determine the meaning of words and phrases
as they are used in a text, including
figurative, connotative, and technical meanings.
Content Objective
• SWBAT infer the author’s intended effect of figurative
language in a poem.
Let’s look at a 6th ELA standard:
WIDA Standard 2: The Language of ELA
34

Levels 1-3
Give opinions with reasons
about the effect of figurative
language in a poem using
sentence starters and a word
bank (e.g. when the author says
__ it makes the reader feel __ ).
Levels 4-5
Create multiple paragraphs
analyzing the effect of figurative
language in a poem.
Domain: WRITING
Identify words or phrases representing figurative language in visually
supported related sentences (e.g., like or as) (Grade 6-8, Reading MPI)
.

Formative Framework
The model performance indicators (MPIs) for the WIDA ELP Standards are exemplars of a students' English language development. The MPIs
are not the standards but are descriptive of language expectations at scaffolded levels of English language proficiency for a given topic/genre
and language domain based on increasing linguistic complexity, vocabulary usage and language control through the use of supports. Educators
should use transformations of the MPIs to meet their specific academic content area needs. For more information on MPI transformations,
please consult the WIDA ELP Standards Resource Guide on the WIDA website at www.wida.us.
Formative assessments are on-going assessments, reviews, and observations in a classroom. Teachers use formative assessment to improve
instructional methods and student feedback throughout the teaching and learning process.

Analysis Disclaimer
This ACCESS for ELLs can be used to assist in the assessment of Students based on data stored in ESLReps. This analysis shown is
based on your ESLReps Student records as of 4:58:56 PM on 1/30/2013 and is only as accurate as the Student records stored in
ESLReps at that point in time. Only Active Students in 1st through 12th grades with at least 2 valid ACCESS for ELLs scores are
included in this analysis. The two most recent ACCESS for ELLs scores for each Student are used to determine the score improvement.
The Tested Out column shows Students that are Non ELL and have an Exit LEP Date.
Data shown on Oklahoma Demo Schools reports may include confidential information which should not be disseminated without prior
written approval. Secure any printed copies appropriately or destroy copies when no longer needed.

English Proficiency Test Scores
Each LEP student takes an English Proficiency test when they enroll and each spring. Each student receives a proficiency level in each
domain (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) based on his raw scores. Once the student receives specific levels in all four domains
they will no longer be considered an LEP student and will not receive ESL services.
Rafael took the ACCESS for ELLs on 3/17/2011 and his test results are listed below.
Listening Writing Reading Speaking Composite Proficiency
Level (CPL)
5.0 - Bridging 3.8 - Developing 5.0 - Bridging 6.0 - Reaching 4.8
The test results are ranked into one of six categories, as shown below:

2 - Beginning Knows and uses some social English and general academic language with visual support
3 - Developing Knows and uses social English and some specific academic language with visual support
