(p. 14, Essential Video)<br>a. The resources. Available for low-income area are at a shortage-Most school<br>aren\u2019t culturally responsive for the increase of El student populations. And<br>it results in under identification of these students. And people are nervous<br>because they don\u2019t want to put a label on the EL students sinc,e they aren\u2019t<br>educated on the identifying these EL students<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Describe the 6 key principles for teaching ELs. (p. 16, Essential Reading 1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instruction focuses on providing Els with opportunities to engage in disciplinespecific practices, which are designed to build conceptual understanding and<br>language competence in tandem. Learning is a social process that<br>requires teachers to intentionally design learning opportunities<br>that integrate reading, writing, speaking, and listening with the<br>practices of each discipline.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instruction leverages ELs\u2019 home language(s), cultural assets, and<br>prior knowledge. ELs\u2019 home language(s) and culture(s) are<br>regarded as assets and are used by the teacher in bridging prior<br>knowledge to new knowledge, and in making content meaningful<br>and comprehensible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Standards-aligned instruction for ELs is rigorous, grade-level<br>appropriate, and provides deliberate<br>and appropriate scaffolds. Instruction that is rigorous and<br>standards-aligned reflects the key shifts in<br>the CCSS and NGSS. Such shifts require that teachers provide<br>students with opportunities to describe their reasoning, share<br>explanations, make conjectures, justify conclusions, argue from<br>evidence, and negotiate meaning from complex texts. Students<br>with developing levels of English proficiency will require<br>instruction that carefully supports their understanding and use of<br>emerging language as they participate in these activities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instruction moves ELs forward by taking into account their<br>English proficiency level(s) and prior schooling experiences. ELs<br>within a single classroom can be heterogeneous in terms of home<br>language(s) proficiency, proficiency in English, literacy levels in<br>English and student\u2019s home language(s), previous experiences in<br>schools, and time in the U.S. Teachers must be attentive to these<br>differences and design instruction accordingly.<br>Make it Happen!!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>lOMoARcPSD|10670206<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"5\">\n<li>Instruction fosters ELs\u2019 autonomy by equipping them with the<br>strategies necessary to comprehend and<br>use language in a variety of academic settings. ELs must learn to<br>use a broad repertoire of strategies to construct meaning from<br>academic talk and complex text, to participate in academic<br>discussions, and to express themselves in writing across a variety<br>of academic situations. Tasks must be designed to ultimately<br>foster student independence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>6. Diagnostic tools and formative assessment practices are<br>employed to measure students\u2019 content knowledge,<br>academic language competence, and participation in<br>disciplinary practices. These assessment practices allow teachers<br>to monitor students\u2019 learning so that they may adjust instruction,<br>accordingly, provide students with timely and useful feedback, and<br>encourage students to reflect on their own thinking and learning.<br>Unit 2, Module 2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>List the important components of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act<br>(IDEA). (p. 18, Essential Reading 1)<br>a. It\u2019s a education law that requires public school to meet the unique needs<br>of eligible K-12 students with disabilities.<br>i. Legal rights for people with disabilities<br>ii. An Individualized Education program (IEP) for eligible K-12 students<br>iii.

(p. 14, Essential Video)<br>a. The resources. Available for low-income area are at a shortage-Most school<br>aren\u2019t culturally responsive for the increase of El student populations. And<br>it results in under identification of these students. And people are nervous<br>because they don\u2019t want to put a label on the EL students sinc,e they aren\u2019t<br>educated on the identifying these EL students<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Describe the 6 key principles for teaching ELs. (p. 16, Essential Reading 1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instruction focuses on providing Els with opportunities to engage in disciplinespecific practices, which are designed to build conceptual understanding and<br>language competence in tandem. Learning is a social process that<br>requires teachers to intentionally design learning opportunities<br>that integrate reading, writing, speaking, and listening with the<br>practices of each discipline.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instruction leverages ELs\u2019 home language(s), cultural assets, and<br>prior knowledge. ELs\u2019 home language(s) and culture(s) are<br>regarded as assets and are used by the teacher in bridging prior<br>knowledge to new knowledge, and in making content meaningful<br>and comprehensible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Standards-aligned instruction for ELs is rigorous, grade-level<br>appropriate, and provides deliberate<br>and appropriate scaffolds. Instruction that is rigorous and<br>standards-aligned reflects the key shifts in<br>the CCSS and NGSS. Such shifts require that teachers provide<br>students with opportunities to describe their reasoning, share<br>explanations, make conjectures, justify conclusions, argue from<br>evidence, and negotiate meaning from complex texts. Students<br>with developing levels of English proficiency will require<br>instruction that carefully supports their understanding and use of<br>emerging language as they participate in these activities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instruction moves ELs forward by taking into account their<br>English proficiency level(s) and prior schooling experiences. ELs<br>within a single classroom can be heterogeneous in terms of home<br>language(s) proficiency, proficiency in English, literacy levels in<br>English and student\u2019s home language(s), previous experiences in<br>schools, and time in the U.S. Teachers must be attentive to these<br>differences and design instruction accordingly.<br>Make it Happen!!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>lOMoARcPSD|10670206<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"5\">\n<li>Instruction fosters ELs\u2019 autonomy by equipping them with the<br>strategies necessary to comprehend and<br>use language in a variety of academic settings. ELs must learn to<br>use a broad repertoire of strategies to construct meaning from<br>academic talk and complex text, to participate in academic<br>discussions, and to express themselves in writing across a variety<br>of academic situations. Tasks must be designed to ultimately<br>foster student independence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>6. Diagnostic tools and formative assessment practices are<br>employed to measure students\u2019 content knowledge,<br>academic language competence, and participation in<br>disciplinary practices. These assessment practices allow teachers<br>to monitor students\u2019 learning so that they may adjust instruction,<br>accordingly, provide students with timely and useful feedback, and<br>encourage students to reflect on their own thinking and learning.<br>Unit 2, Module 2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>List the important components of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act<br>(IDEA).
