1 LA1 - High School English Language Development 1 Curriculum Essentials Document Boulder Valley School District Department of Curriculum and Instruction April 2012

2 Access for All Colorado English Language Proficiency Standards CELPS Boulder Valley School District is committed to providing access to all students through including the CELP Standards (WIDA) in this Curriculum Essentials Document and through building and utilizing a comprehensive RtI system. CELPS/WIDA World-Class Instructional Design and Assessment On December 10, 2009, the Colorado State Board of Education voted unanimously to adopt the World- Class Instruction Design and Assessment standards (WIDA) as the Colorado English Language Proficiency standards. What is WIDA? CELP Standards (WIDA) is now used by a consortium of 22 states dedicated to the design and implementation of high standards and equitable educational opportunities for English language learners (ELLs). CELP Standards (WIDA) is a framework for instruction for English language development. There are five CELP Standards (WIDA) English language proficiency standards/content areas: ELLs communicate for Social and Instructional purposes within the school setting. ELLs communicate information, ideas, and concepts necessary for academic success in the content area of Language Arts. ELLs communicate information, ideas, and concepts necessary for academic success in the content area of Mathematics. ELLs communicate information, ideas, and concepts necessary for academic success in the content area of Science. ELLs communicate information, ideas, and concepts necessary for academic success in the content area of Social Studies. How is CELPS/WIDA organized? Grade Level Clusters CELP Standards (WIDA) is organized in five grade level clusters: Pre K K, 1 2, 3 5, 6 8, and Language Domains Each of the five English language proficiency standards encompasses four language domains (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) that define how ELLs process and use language. Listening- process, understand, interpret, and evaluate spoken language in a variety of situations.

3 Speaking- engage in oral communication in a variety of situations for a variety of purposes and audiences. Reading-process, understand, interpret and evaluate written language (symbols and text) with understanding and fluency. Writing- engage in written communication in a variety of situations for a variety of purposes and audiences. Proficiency Levels There are six English language acquisition proficiency levels: 1 Entering, 2 Beginning, 3 Developing, 4 Expanding, 5 Bridging, and 6 Reaching Proficiency Levels identification must include looking at: Linguistic Complexity: The amount and quality of speech or writing for a given situation Forms and Conventions: The types and variety of grammatical structures, conventions, mechanics and fluency Vocabulary Usage: The specificity of words or phrases for a given context What are CAN DO Descriptors? The CAN DO Descriptors are examples of expectations of English language learners for each of the four language domains listening, speaking, reading, and writing and six levels of English language proficiency Entering, Beginning, Developing, Expanding, Bridging and Reaching. There are CAN DO descriptors for each grade level clusters as well as the general PreK-12 spectrum. These differences must be taken into account when using the Descriptors. It is important to acknowledge the variability of students cognitive development due to age, grade level spans, diagnosed learning disabilities (if applicable) and their diversity of educational experiences. Expectations of young ELLs differ substantially from those of older students. The CAN DO Descriptors provide a starting point for working with ELLs and a collaborative tool for planning. What are Model Performance Indicators? The CELP Standards (WIDA) English language proficiency standards document includes some examples of formative and summative model performance indicators (MPIs). The MPIs are assessable tasks which students can be expected to do as they approach the transition to the next level of English language proficiency. In addition Model Performance Indicators can be developed to differentiate instruction for ELLs. An MPI include three components: Language function- how ELLS process or use language to communicate in a variety of situations (Identify, describe, summarize, answer, etc). Topics- provide the context or backdrop for language interaction (basic operations, life cycles, facts/opinions, communities etc). Support- provide scaffold (sensory, graphic or interactive).

4 Some examples are provided of MPIs for all content areas. Content teachers and ESL teachers work together to develop MPIs for the grades they are teaching. What assessments will be used with WIDA? The state of Colorado is in the process of developing or adopting an assessment which will replace the CELA by Spring For more information see
