What It Is Not

CA ELD Standards
|
The full text of each CA ELD Standard for each grade and for each of the three proficiency levels (CDE, 2014)
|
Consider how the standard applies to science teaching and learning in classrooms with EL students
|
Not: Complete information on the organization, structure, or use of the CA ELD standards
|
Applying ELD Standards to Science
|
Additional information to supplement the text of each CA ELD Standard, describing how the standard applies to science teaching and learning
|
Consider how the additional information helps to apply the standard to science teaching and learning in classrooms with EL students
|
Not: A full version of the standard, rewritten so that it applies to science teaching and learning
|
Corresponding Science & Engineering Practices
|
The Science and Engineering Practices (SEPs) that correspond to the Performance Expectations (PEs) selected for the Sample Science/ELD Classroom Close-up
|
Consider how each SEP applies to designing science units or lessons that correspond to the standard and to the PEs listed. Consider how additional PEs and SEPs might apply in order to integrate this standard into science teaching and learning.
|
Not: All possible PEs or SEPs that correspond to the standard. The correspondence study cited in the Introduction to this resource typically found several PEs that correspond to each CA ELD Standard.
|
Sample Science/ELD Classroom Close-up
|
An illustrative sample activity or activities that EL students at one grade level in the grade-level grouping could engage in, with a focus on the CA ELD Standard, SEPs, and PEs listed for that grade level
|
Consider how the sample activity or activities can be adapted for science instruction at other grade levels in the grouping or for EL students at Emerging, Expanding, or Bridging levels of English language proficiency.
Standards in Part II should always be used in tandem with standards in Part I. The Part II samples are isolated only for purposes of the organization of the resource.
|
Not: All knowledge or skills described in the CA ELD Standard, SEPs, or PEs listed; content or strategies for students at all grade levels or all English language proficiency levels; all possible processes, strategies, tasks, or activities related to the sample; a lesson plan; a description of an actual or complete classroom or lesson.
|
Sample-Specific Science & Engineering Practices
|
Additional SEPs that correspond to the activities described in the Sample Science/ELD Classroom Close-up
|
Consider how each of these SEPs applies to these sample classroom activities
|
Not: All of the PEs or SEPs that correspond to the standard
|
