Provides opportunity for individual and group practice Provides opportunity for individual practice only. Provides opportunity for group practice only Does not provide opportunity for specific practice, but goes over the task on the board. POST READING STRATEGIES Provides two (2) or more opportunities for ELLs to apply the vocabulary and phrases learned during the lesson through specific post reading strategies using graphics, questioning and teacher prompts. Provides one(1) opportunity for ELLs to apply the vocabulary and phrases learned reading strategies, using graphics, questioning and teacher prompts Provides limited opportunities for ELLs to apply what has been learned reading strategies, using graphics, questioning and teacher prompts Makes an attempt to provide an opportunity for ELLs to apply vocabulary and phrases learned reading strategies. 4 3 2 1 Provides a review and summarization of the expectations for the lesson, according to the objectives for the lesson, and gives feedback to language output Provides a review and summarization of the expectations for the lesson, according to the objectives for the lesson, but does not give feedback to the ELLs regarding language output Provides a review of the expectations for the lesson according to the objectives, but does not summarize what was learned or provide feedback to language output.

Shows sincerity in the self-reflective statements leading to possibilities for improvement, but shows restrains in identifying important areas. Is very mechanical in providing statements leading to true improvement. Is unable to provide a deeper level of reflection leading to true improvement, but does identify at least one area of needs. 3 2 1.5 Makes creative use of technology in all aspects of the lesson plan and activity Uses technology to enhance the lesson plan presentation and activities for ELLs.
