(006) ELD vs SDAIE  ELD – English Language Development   Expected learning outcome: explicit, concise, and in-line with appropriate CA ELD and/or Content standards.   Focus : Academic English Language Development.     Lesson Characteristics Emphasis is on developing academic English vocabulary and language structures. Accessing prior knowledge is essential. Incorporating and valuing the home culture of the student and the student’s family. Several opportunities for students to practice all 4 ELD strands – Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening. SDAIE – Structurally Designed Academics in English   Expected learning outcome: explicit, concise, and in-line with appropriate CA Content standards.   Focus : Content, but mindful of continuing academic English language development.   Lesson Characteristics Emphasis is on developing content knowledge in English. L1 (Primary Language) can be used to provide conceptual support. English vocabulary needs to be frontloaded. Scaffold abstract ideas and concepts that require organization.

(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?

CTEL Module 2 Domain 1 001 Principles of Standards-Based Assessment and Instruction CTEL Text: Chapter 3 Participant 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… STANDARDS inform ASSESSMENT ASSESSMENT informs INSTRUCTION Students engage in LEARNING Students DEMONSTRATE what they know Students experience LEARNING, or 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.

(003) Overachievement…  297  “ Model Minorities” become over-qualified for jobs Teacher expectations of some groups elicit higher achievement Some subgroups resist assimilation
(003) Issues… Dropouts Tendency is to blame students The need is to provide high quality curriculum and instruction and know about the students and their families Retention 10% of language minority students are retained Tracking Educational gaps continue

    (006) ELD vsSDAIE ELD – English Language Development   Expected learning outcome: explicit, concise, and in-line with appropriate CA ELD and/or Content standards.   Focus : Academic English Language Development.     Lesson Characteristics Emphasis is on developing academic English vocabulary and language structures. Accessing prior knowledge is essential. Incorporating and valuing the home culture of the student and the student’s family. Several opportunities for students to practice all 4 ELD strands – Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening. SDAIE – Structurally Designed Academics in English   Expected learning outcome: explicit, concise, and in-line with appropriate CA Content standards.   Focus : Content, but mindful of continuing academic English language development.   Lesson Characteristics Emphasis is on developing content knowledge in English. L1 (Primary Language) can be used to provide conceptual support. English vocabulary needs to be frontloaded. Scaffold abstract ideas and concepts that require organization.

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.
  • 110.
    (012) SDAIE LessonPlan 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

    (001) ELDStandards 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.
