I. INSTRUCTION FOR EL’S IS CHANGING
1. Increase the rigor of
language instruction
by emphasizing
academic language
across content areas
2. Language instruction
must happen through
high-quality, well-
scaffolded content
instruction – not only
through ESL pull-out

VI. Ellevation Platform Description
13
II. THE IMPORTANCE OF LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Language objectives specifically identify:
1) The way students will use language to engage with the
content of the lesson and accomplish the content objective.
2) The specific components of academic language (vocabulary,
language structures, etc.) that students will need to learn to
accomplish the objective.
Before we start, what is a language objective?
14
II. THE IMPORTANCE OF LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
1. Planning
• How is language instruction integrated with content
• What academic language must students learn
2. Student Support
• What scaffolds must a teacher have ready.
3. Differentiation
• A “strand” of language objectives helps teachers set
appropriate objectives at different levels and better
differentiate instruction

standards or objectives
we MUST teach
• Provide a bank of every
language objective we
would ever need
• Provide tools that we can
use to build language
objectives for our
classrooms
• Provide a bank of sample
MPIs that we can transform
to create language
objectives that fit our
contexts

IV. CREATING LANGUAGE OBJECITVES
• Language Objectives are not identical to MPIs and
should not be used interchangeably.
• A language objective is much like an MPI but is then
'transformed' by including both supports and the
levels it should be used for.
• You may need to tweak what we are presenting to
reflect processes in place in your district; we know
districts have different ways of doing this.
Let’s begin by addressing what may be some confusion

WIDA provides some sample supports we can use:
(from “2012 Amplification of English Language Development Standards, K-12,” WIDA)
28
IV. DIFFERENTIATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Students at different levels will require different supports.
VA Science Standard
• First Grade Science (1.7): The student will investigate and
understand weather and seasonal changes. Key concepts include:
1. changes in temperature, light, and precipitation affect plants and animals, humans;
2. there are relationships between daily and seasonal changes; and
3. changes in temperature, light, and precipitation can be observed over time.
WIDA Standard 4: Language of Science
Content Objective
• SWBAT track daily weather on a class weather chart,
including temperature, wind direction, and precipitation.
Let’s look at an early elementary science standard:
29
IV. DIFFERENTIATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Let’s differentiate language objectives for two groups of ELs
Levels 1-3 Levels 4-5
Name familiar objects in photographs or illustrations
associated with weather conditions (e.g. “cloud”).
We can use a Level 1 MPI as a resource…
Describe daily weather
conditions from
photographs and class
charts (i.e. Today the
weather is rainy.)
Compare daily weather
conditions across different
days using class charts (i.e. I
know Thursday was hotter than
Monday because_____ ).
Domain: SPEAKING
and transform it to fit our class:
30
IV. DIFFERENTIATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Students at different levels will require different supports.
Virginia Standard
• Number and Number Sense (6.1): The student will describe
and compare data, using ratios, and will use appropriate
notations, such as , a to b, and a:b.
WIDA Standard 3: Language of Mathematics
Content Objective
• SWBAT solve word problems involving unit rates.
• SWBAT justify their decisions based on unit rates in real-life
scenarios (e.g. choosing which car to buy based on gas mileage in
miles / gallon).
Let’s look at a 6th grade math standard:
31
IV. DIFFERENTIATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Let’s differentiate language objectives for two groups of ELs
Levels 1-3
Compare choices based on
real-life rate calculations
using a graphic organizer
and sentence frames (e.g.
_____ is greater than
_____).
Levels 4-5
Critique choices based on
others’ mathematical reasoning
from sample solutions to real-
life rate problems.
Domain: WRITING
List choices based on rate calculations in real-life situations
using templates and a word bank with a partner.
We can use a Level 1 MPI as a resource…
and transform it to fit our class:
32
IV. DIFFERENTIATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Students at different levels will require different supports.
Virginia Standard
• 6.5: Identify and analyze the author’s use of figurative language.
Content Objective
• SWBAT infer the author’s intended effect of figurative
language in a poem.
Let’s look at a 6th ELA standard:
WIDA Standard 2: The Language of ELA
33
IV. DIFFERENTIATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Let’s differentiate language objectives for two groups of ELs
Levels 1-3
Give opinions with reasons
about the effect of figurative
language in a poem using
sentence starters and a word
bank (e.g. when the author says
__ it makes the reader feel __ ).
Levels 4-5
Create multiple paragraphs
analyzing the effect of figurative
language in a poem.
Domain: WRITING
Identify words or phrases representing figurative language in visually
supported related sentences (e.g., like or as) (Grade 6-8, Reading MPI)
.

Formative Framework
The model performance indicators (MPIs) for the WIDA ELP Standards are exemplars of a students' English language development. The MPIs
are not the standards but are descriptive of language expectations at scaffolded levels of English language proficiency for a given topic/genre
and language domain based on increasing linguistic complexity, vocabulary usage and language control through the use of supports. Educators
should use transformations of the MPIs to meet their specific academic content area needs. For more information on MPI transformations,
please consult the WIDA ELP Standards Resource Guide on the WIDA website at www.wida.us.
Formative assessments are on-going assessments, reviews, and observations in a classroom. Teachers use formative assessment to improve
instructional methods and student feedback throughout the teaching and learning process.

English Proficiency Test Scores
Each LEP student takes an English Proficiency test when they enroll and each spring. Each student receives a proficiency level in each
domain (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) based on his raw scores. Once the student receives specific levels in all four domains
they will no longer be considered an LEP student and will not receive ESL services.
Rafael took the ACCESS for ELLs on 3/17/2011 and his test results are listed below.
Listening Writing Reading Speaking Composite Proficiency

  • 12. I. INSTRUCTION FOR EL’S IS CHANGING 1. Increase the rigor of language instruction by emphasizing academic language across content areas 2.

  • 14. II. THE IMPORTANCE OF LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES Language objectives specifically identify: 1) The way students will use language to engage with the content of the lesson and accomplish the content objective. 2) The specific components of academic language (vocabulary, language structures, etc.) that students will need to learn to accomplish the objective. Before we start, what is a language objective? 14
  • 15. II. THE IMPORTANCE OF LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES 1. Planning • How is language instruction integrated with content • What academic language must students learn 2. Student Support • What scaffolds must a teacher have ready. 3. Differentiation • A “strand” of language objectives helps teachers set appropriate objectives at different levels and better differentiate instruction 15

  • 20. AGENDA I. Instruction for ELLs is Changing II. The Importance of Language Objectives III. Leveraging WIDA Resources IV. Creating Language Objectives: Step-by-Step V. Q and A VI. Ellevation Platform Description 20
  • 21. IV. CREATING LANGUAGE OBJECITVES • Language Objectives are not identical to MPIs and should not be used interchangeably. • A language objective is much like an MPI but is then 'transformed' by including both supports and the levels it should be used for. • You may need to tweak what we are presenting to reflect processes in place in your district; we know districts have different ways of doing this. Let’s begin by addressing what may be some confusion 21
  • 22. IV. CREATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES Transforming an MPI into a Language Objective WIDA Customize Result Identify MPI Add Supports & Level Language Objective Start Select Content objective 22
  • 23. IV. CREATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES: STEP-BY-STEP 1. Set the Stage • Know your students and levels • Identify content standard at unit level • Language Domain: Listening, Speaking, Reading Writing • Identify applicable MPI 2.

The MPIs are not the standards but are descriptive of language expectations at scaffolded levels of English language proficiency for a given topic/genre and language domain based on increasing linguistic complexity, vocabulary usage and language control through the use of supports. Educators should use transformations of the MPIs to meet their specific academic content area needs. For more information on MPI transformations, please consult the WIDA ELP Standards Resource Guide on the WIDA website at www.wida.us. Formative assessments are on-going assessments, reviews, and observations in a classroom. Teachers use formative assessment to improve instructional methods and student feedback throughout the teaching and learning process.
