The Professional Development Template for EL Students was created for the CESA #1 EL OER Project. Providing professional development is essential when working with and meeting to needs of EL students. Educators are able to personalize this professional development template to meet the needs of their staff and ELs. This template discusses characteristics of an EL student, the language acquisition theory, the WIDA CanDo Descriptors, language learning plans, and how to scaffold lessons.
CESA #1 EL OER Project
This resource was created to support high school ELs (level 1 and 2) in the 20th U.S. History unit about Progressive era. The unit ends with two different activities that can be used for assessment: providing supporting details and compare/contrast.
While creating this resource I used strategies to: build background knowledge and teach new vocabulary with visual support
Also, I suggest accommodations such as limited number of the most important events. Finally, check for understanding with compare/contrast activity.
