Our Approach

Our learning is grounded in the intersection of the standards, content, aligned curriculum, and the equitable instructional practices that are essential for closing the opportunity gap caused by systemic bias and racism.

Day 1: Understanding Language• Navigating language complexity that lives in the text requires thoughtful support. • What can it look like in instruction?
Day 2: Scaffolding Up to Standard-Aligned Tasks• The text that we put in front of students shows them what we think about them.• How do we make sure all students can access complex text?
Day 3: Building and Processing Knowledge and Language• Unpacking the structure of the text• What is the connection between being able to unpack the complex structure of a text and
equitable reading and writing outcomes?
Day 4: Academic Language Supports and Standards-Aligned Writing Instruction • Building structured standards-aligned writing opportunities solidifies knowledge and learning.• How do you scaffold understanding and expression of understanding through standards-aligned
tasks?
Day 5: Planning for Action• Writing our story• How do we ensure equitable outcomes for all our students?

• Take responsibility for yourself as a learner.
• Honor time frames (start, end, and activity).
• Be an active and hands-on learner.
• Use technology to enhance learning.
• Strive for equity of voice.
• Contribute to a learning environment in which it is “safe to not know.”
• Identify and reframe deficit thinking and speaking.

We are the gatekeepers of academic language in the classroom. We must provide students with well-structured, intentional opportunities for collaboration that amplifies academic language.
We experience the world through our culture, language, and values. We must be intentionally inclusive of students whose culture, language, and value system may be unfamiliar or different from our own. This includes holding space for academic English, while also making the classroom a safe space for students to use variants of English and languages other than English.
Academic English proficiency is critical for all students. We must model academic language, provide instruction using grade-level complex text, and ensure opportunities for students to practice academic language in an academic context.
There is no scope-and-sequence for the acquisition of knowledge and language, and all student knowledge and language is an asset. We as educators must leverage student knowledge and language as we scaffold students toward independence with complex texts and tasks.

STRONGER AT EVERY TURN: BUILDING AND SYNTHESIZING OUR IDEAS
Keynote DebriefEach time you talk to a partner, you build from and borrow the ideas and language of previous partners. Make your answer stronger each time with better and better evidence, examples, and explanations.
2 minutes: Jot down notes about the keynote that you want to share. Thesecould be areas of validation, reminding, new information, outstanding questions, or connections to the Principles for Language, Equity, and Learners.
5 minutes: Bring your notes.
Form triads with people you have not yet spent time with.Share and discuss your written reflection with your partners.Jot down ideas they share that improve your own discussion or that you think are important.
5 minutes: Find a new triad with two new partners. Repeat the process, incorporating your previous partners’ feedback into the conversation where appropriate.

“POLICY BRIEF: ENGLISH LEARNERS AND CONTENT-RICH CURRICULA”
Focus On...
Reread “Policy Brief: English Learners and Content-Rich Curricula” by Sue Pimentel, and add on to your annotations from your pre-read, identifying and commenting on the following:
1. Moments of validation that connect to your practice
2. Moments of reminding that connect to the keynote and Institute learning
3. Moments of new information or areas in need of clarification
Note these clearly on your copy of the article.

DEBRIEF PROCESS AND PRINCIPLES FOR LANGUAGE, EQUITY, AND LEARNERS
Mill Drill (Variation): Debriefing the Article
• Take out your “Policy Brief” handout.• Line up into two lines, and face the person
across from you.• When the clock starts, participant in row A
answers question 1. Participant B then answers question 1, and the two discuss.
• At the conclusion of 2 minutes, each partner thanks their colleague and moves one step to the right.
• With your new partner, follow the same procedure for question 2.
• Follow the same procedure for question 3.• Return to your seat.

● How does this process relate to the Principles for Language, Equity, and Learners, or to ideas you read in the “Policy Debrief”?
● How could the Stronger at Every Turn and the Mill Drill protocols be used to support learners in the classroom? How could they be further scaffolded (or less scaffolded) to meet student needs?

Scaffolding and Modifying
27
Define Scaffolding. ● Identify an example of
when you have provided or observed scaffolding of a task.
● Discuss the impact on objectives, instruction, and student learning when we scaffold experiences or activities.
Define Modifying.● Identify an example of
when you have modified or observed modification of a task.
● Discuss the impact on objectives, instruction, and student learning when we modify experiences or activities.
How do scaffolds and modifications function as moves geared toward—or away from—equitable practice?

SCAFFOLDING
Scaffolding UPScaffolding is just the right kind
of support required by learners
so as to be able to develop their
potential to go where they
haven’t been yet.
The goal of scaffolding is learner
autonomy. Academic practices
entail students’ simultaneous
development of conceptual
understandings, academic skills,
and the language required to enact
them.

SCAFFOLDING
A Closer Look
29
Scaffolding is …Generative (useful in a range of lessons or contexts).
An amplification of accessibility (creating an on-ramp into the work so the student can engage and benefit).
A means to develop learner autonomy (to apprentice the student, over time, to support her/himself).
Support that allows students to accomplish more than they could independently.
Pre-planned and/or in-the-moment.

“Since language development is a complex long-term process, students should have access to authentic curriculum concurrent with language instruction. Empirical research indicates that with access to grade-level content, students’ academic literacy development and performance improves on standardized assessments.”
– WIDA Theoretical Foundations
That means:grade-level texts with tasks and
language demands that support
students’ language proficiency levels.

Language Development Is Not Linear
Although these documents present the language development progressions as linear, language acquisition doesn’t necessarily occur in a linear fashion within or across proficiency levels.
A language learner may exhibit some abilities at a higher proficiency level (e.g., speaking skills) and other abilities at a lower proficiency level (e.g., writing skills).
A language learner may demonstrate proficiency of basic skills at one level, and at the next level need review or support of basics when presented with new, unfamiliar, or more complex text.

USING THE PROGRESSIONS FOR INSTRUCTION
Designing Multiple Points of EntryUse the Progressions to plan and assess language by …
• Differentiating linguistic scaffolds that students will require to arrive at the same end result.
• Determining specific scaffolds that target the content-area demands (and how to break the content down).
• Developing ongoing formative assessment based on levels of progression.
• Developing specific language objectives, or—better yet—integrating them.
• Differentiating instruction based on language programs and settings.

INTENDED AND APPROPRIATE USES CA ELD, WIDA, and NY Progressions
• Use in conjunction with the standards.
• Use in conjunction with high-quality, standards-aligned curriculum.
• Use cohesively (rather than piecemeal).
• Recognize that none of the guidance documents is an exhaustive list of all the linguistic processes and resources needed to develop language proficiency (especially across the academic disciplines).

REFLECTION
Have We Met Our Objectives?Day 2:
Are we now better prepared to:
• Identify the intersection of the Language and the Speaking and Listening standards with the Writing standards?
• Understand how to review the quality of writing tasks?
• Understand how to unpack writing tasks to identify areas in need of scaffolding?
• Develop writing scaffolds?
• Understand how to use ELL support documents to guide development of scaffolds?
• Recognize differences and similarities between ELL support documents?
