Science Gets an F in Elementary Schools
1) A statewide study found that science education in California elementary schools is poor and has worsened due to the focus on improving math and English test scores. Only 10% of classrooms provide high-quality science instruction according to a survey of administrators and teachers.
2) The state's testing system weights English and math heavily, accounting for over 50% of a school's score, while science is less than 6%. As a result, science lessons are reduced or eliminated to focus on tested subjects.
3) Educators recognize weaknesses in science instruction, with most teachers receiving no science training in recent years and most districts having no staff dedicated to elementary science. The recommendations include increasing science emphasis, testing, and support

The document introduces the research topic of comparing language learning strategies used by different groups of learners, including college students, English teachers and office workers. It outlines the problem statement, significance, objectives and limitations of the study.
Research.proposal.presentation2
This research proposal aims to study the effects of three different English reading instruction methods (Sustained Silent Reading, Shared Reading, and General Reading Instruction) on the English language acquisition of Thai students in grades 1-3, as measured by standardized tests. 420 students across three grades and three treatment groups will be pre-tested and tested at regular intervals over one year. The researcher hypothesizes that Sustained Silent Reading and Shared Reading will lead to greater improvements in English proficiency than General Reading Instruction, based on prior studies. Precise methodology and procedures are outlined to train teachers, administer treatments, and analyze results.

Using Proficiency Testing
The document discusses using proficiency testing to improve instruction for English learners. It summarizes key standards and assessments used in many states including WIDA standards, WIDA English language proficiency levels, and the ACCESS and CELLA assessments. The document also provides an overview of Krashen's five hypotheses of second language acquisition, including the acquisition-learning distinction, the monitor hypothesis, natural order hypothesis, input hypothesis, and affective filter hypothesis.
WIDA CELLA
This document discusses classroom activities related to WIDA and CELLA testing for English language learners. It addresses Florida teacher standards regarding assessment issues that affect ELL learning, including cultural and linguistic bias in testing, assessing in two languages, sociopolitical and psychological factors, special education testing and giftedness assessment. Teachers are asked to review features of NCLB, implications of standardized versus performance-based assessment, how various factors impact ELL learning, and review WIDA standards and CELLA assessments to understand their effects and how to present information to parents.
Using Proficiency Testing
The document discusses using proficiency testing to improve instruction for English learners. It summarizes the WIDA consortium, which advances academic language development for PreK-12 English learners through standards, assessment, research, and professional development. It also discusses CELLA testing, which assesses English proficiency in listening, speaking, reading and writing, and Krashen's theory of second language acquisition, which includes the acquisition-learning distinction and hypotheses about natural order, input, monitoring, and affective filters.

Methods-Building Developmental Lessons
This document provides a framework for developing effective lessons for English learners. It outlines that teachers should first (A) identify learners' language proficiency levels and objectives for what students should know and be able to do. Second (B), teachers should design step-by-step learning activities to accomplish the objectives. Finally (C), teachers should determine how they will measure whether students have achieved the intended outcomes.
SLA Theories-Chapter 6
The document discusses several theories of second language acquisition, including Krashen's input hypothesis and the interaction hypothesis. According to Krashen, language acquisition occurs subconsciously when learners are exposed to comprehensible input at a level slightly above their current abilities. The interaction hypothesis posits that acquisition happens through negotiation of meaning between individuals. Piaget's theory of cognitive development includes stages that children progress through, while Vygotsky emphasized that social interaction and cultural experiences shape development within a zone of proximal development.
Language Experience Lesson Activity
This document describes a Language Experience Approach (LEA) lesson conducted by an elementary school teacher in Florida. The teacher had students collect leaves outside, then guided them through describing the experience. As the students shared what they did, the teacher wrote down their words to create a class-generated text. The teacher had the students read the text together multiple times. This LEA lesson supported language acquisition for English learners and helped develop reading skills for all students.
Cooperative Learning Activity
The document discusses methods for teaching English to speakers of other languages (ESOL) using conventional and non-conventional measures in math. It describes a scenario where an ESOL teacher introduces a lesson on perimeter and area by having students measure a table using hand spans. Students then work in groups to create floor models and measure them using different units. The teacher supports varied English proficiency levels and ensures all students understand before having groups share their findings.

Transformation in education will lead to a culturally proficient society with empowered teachers according to experts. Culture is defined as a dynamic, learned, and shared system composed of surface and deep traits among a group of people. Educators must develop culturally proficient practices such as establishing inclusive classrooms, using multicultural curricula approaches, and serving as role models for students.
