Creating standards for adult learners NYS TESOL annual conf.2013ershawwa
The document discusses using goal setting to help adult English language learners take control of their learning. It describes two case studies where teachers implemented goal setting activities. In the first case study, teachers had students at a community organization complete questionnaires about their English use and goals. In the second case study, teachers gave an ESP class a weekly questionnaire to set goals and strategies for independent study. The document concludes that having students actively set and track goals can increase autonomy and help them get more from independent study.
The CKLA instructional path is data-based, explicit and systematic, and provides individualized support through teacher interactions, small groups, and centers. It follows a three-step writing process of planning, drafting, and editing for different text types over consecutive lessons. Initial assessments are used to group students and identify needs, and include tests of letter names/sounds, writing strokes, word recognition, story comprehension, pseudowords, and code diagnostics. Teachers can implement the program in various classroom configurations depending on available staffing.
This document discusses effective verbal, non-verbal, and media communication techniques for teachers. It addresses:
1. Various aspects of verbal communication like demeanor, vocal range, use of language, and confidence.
2. Non-verbal communication including posture, enthusiasm, gestures, and organization of classroom space.
3. Media communication tools used like print materials, email, websites, and artmaking.
4. The importance of considering culture, gender, intellectual and physical differences when communicating.
5. Exercises to foster good communication skills in students through speaking, writing and other forms of expression.
This document discusses using peer review in the formative stage of writing. It notes benefits like greater student participation and collaborative dialogue, but also potential problems if students prefer feedback from teachers. The study used peer review strategies in modules on a pre-master's program. Students provided peer feedback on drafts based on guidelines. While students from some cultures only value teacher feedback, peer review helped students work together and receive more guidance. However, both peer reviewers and reviewees sometimes felt anxious about providing or receiving feedback from peers rather than teachers. Cultural experiences can influence approaches to peer review.
Teaching Critical Thinking with Marina AmbrosiIrina K
This document discusses developing critical thinking skills for in-service teachers in Moldova. It outlines goals of developing teachers' skills in cooperating with students and self-evaluation.

ESL teachers provide individualized instruction to English language learners through various methods. They use leveled books and word walls to engage students at different proficiency levels. ESL teachers employ both direct instruction, where they plan and deliver lessons, as well as instructional support, by monitoring student progress and collaborating with other teachers. The ESL classroom promotes positive group learning and peer tutoring to create a collaborative environment where students can learn from each other. Highly qualified ESL teachers are in high demand to help English language learners succeed in school.

Proper planning is important, including selecting an appropriate text, introducing vocabulary, and preparing questions. Assessment includes informal observations and running records to track student progress.
Concepts About Print refers to the foundational understandings emergent readers need to have about how printed language works and represents language. These concepts include print awareness, knowledge of book and print concepts, and include understanding front/back of books, directionality of reading from left to right, that print carries meaning at the letter, word, and sentence level, and that words are separated by spaces. Concepts About Print are taught through shared reading experiences with big books, charts, and poems, as well as guided reading, story dictations, and exploring print in the classroom.
The document outlines the daily lesson cycle for guided reading in small groups, which consists of 8 parts that take 15-25 minutes per group. It involves word work practice, a familiar or new book read, a focus mini lesson on reading skills or word families, introducing a new book with a title, summary and picture walk, students reading independently while being listened to, comprehension questions, and praise/teaching points before extending into other subjects. The cycle is meant to be flexible depending on student needs assessed through data.
Guided Reading Daily Lesson Cycle (1st & 2nd Grades) for Professional Develo...Bonnie Reyes Weltjens
The document outlines the daily lesson cycle for guided reading in a balanced literacy reading workshop. It is divided into 7 parts that take 15-25 minutes total: 1) Word work practice, 2) Focus mini lesson, 3) Introduce or continue a leveled reader book, 4) Students read book independently while teacher monitors, 5) Comprehension check with higher-order thinking questions, 6) Praise a student's work and reiterate the learning target, 7) Possible extension activity. The goal is to develop students' literacy skills including phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension through brief targeted lessons and independent reading with teacher support.
This document contains information about a unit on addition and subtraction algorithms, including essential questions, non-negotiables, and learning objectives. The unit covers strategies for solving problems, such as mental math, models, and number sentences. Students will learn about bank accounts, deposits, withdrawals, and how these transactions affect balances. They will also explore the importance of order in addition and subtraction, as well as strategies for solving unknown values. Non-negotiables address misconceptions like the relationship between the minuend and subtrahend. Learning objectives involve distinguishing deposits from withdrawals and calculating savings over time.
This document provides an overview of a math unit on fractions that includes key vocabulary terms, common misconceptions to address, and essential questions. The unit focuses on partitioning 2D shapes into halves, fourths, or eighths; recognizing that fractional parts may be the same size or shape; and understanding relationships between the number of parts and their size when a whole is divided into different fractional amounts.
