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 classes
State Requirements

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?
![Page 15: Setting ELL Language Objectives (Webinar Slides from Ellevation Education)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/54b5ee1c4a7959df2c8b457d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
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

III. LEVERAGING WIDA RESOURCES
WIDA does… WIDA does not…• List a specific set of
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
![Page 20: Setting ELL Language Objectives (Webinar Slides from Ellevation Education)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/54b5ee1c4a7959df2c8b457d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

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
![Page 22: Setting ELL Language Objectives (Webinar Slides from Ellevation Education)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/54b5ee1c4a7959df2c8b457d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

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. Craft Language Objective
• Language Function to describe what students should do (CAN Do’s are a great source)
• What supports do students need
• Content/topic linked to CCSS
• Customize to match levels
![Page 24: Setting ELL Language Objectives (Webinar Slides from Ellevation Education)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/54b5ee1c4a7959df2c8b457d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

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; and3. 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:
![Page 30: Setting ELL Language Objectives (Webinar Slides from Ellevation Education)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/54b5ee1c4a7959df2c8b457d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

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:

31
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:
![Page 32: Setting ELL Language Objectives (Webinar Slides from Ellevation Education)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/54b5ee1c4a7959df2c8b457d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
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:

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
![Page 34: Setting ELL Language Objectives (Webinar Slides from Ellevation Education)](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013100/54b5ee1c4a7959df2c8b457d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
IV. DIFFERENTIATING LANGUAGE OBJECTIVES
Let’s differentiate language objectives for two groups of ELs
Levels 1-3Give 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).
We can use a Level 1 MPI as a resource…
and transform it to fit our class:
