Connect CCSS with needs of EL students
Understand need for specific, research-based

vocabulary instruction

Understand the difference between Tier 1, 2, and 3

words.

Understand how vocabulary is best taught to ELLs

How do these strategies connect with CCSS?

Strategies for Common Core

Why is this an effective strategy?

What are some of the characteristics

f this

strategy?

What are some of the limitations of this strategy? How does this help students learn?

Why do we use strategies?

Effective teachers develop students' sense of autonomy through the explicit teaching

f strategies that enable them

to approach academic tasks successfully. The teaching of such metacognitive strategies is a way of scaffolding instruction; the goal is to gradually hand

ver responsibility to the

learners as they acquire skills and knowledge.

Why focus on Academic Language?

…we know that mastery of academic language and vocabulary is one of the most effective determinants of success for both native English speakers and ELLs.

(Council of Great City Schools)

Common Core EL Focus

With the introduction of CCSS and

the next generation ELD standards, we are re-conceptualizing the instruction of academic language:

– Language and Literacy co-exist – Therefore, academic language is learned within context first – mostly during reading.

CCSS Appendix A – pp. 32

After reading, discuss the following:

1. What are some critical

aspects to teaching/ learning vocabulary?

2. How does learning

vocabulary change as students enter higher grade levels?

3. Name some word

knowledge strategies.

Discussion…

What is the purpose of understanding word

tiers? How might it help with vocabulary instruction?

How could writing the definition of a word

from the dictionary distort a word’s meaning for English Language Learners?

What are some strategies for teaching

vocabulary?

Closing

Discuss some strategies you might use to:

– help with vocabulary instruction for ELLs – teach words in context – avoid over scaffolding of vocabulary – create student agency – Students learn to try to figure out words on their own, using strategies taught by the teacher.
