Description:

For this task, you will be conducting both informal and formal assessments to determine the baseline of a group of AN ESOL STUDENT. Data from various sources will be collected and graphed in an electronic spreadsheet to show both pre-test and post-test results. These assessments will be further used to recognize gaps in student subject matter for the purpose of designing instruction andsequencing lessons and concepts ensuring coherence and prior knowledge for a series of at least five sequenced lessons. One of the lessons must be evaluated by either the cooperating classroom teacher or college instructor. Lessons must align with the state-adopted standards and match the previously determined level ofstudents. Lessons will show evidence of differentiation based on an assessment of student learning needs and recognition of individual differences in students. Differentiation for the ESOL student must show evidence that the student’s cultural, linguistic, and family backgroundhas been used during the development of instructional activities. Finally, a narrative discussing this experience should include what you have learned about differentiating instruction in reading, using ESOL strategies to differentiate instruction, how this experience will help you in your classroom, the impact made on instruction, and whether your instruction positively impacted student growth in reading.

What to submit?

This assignment should be submitted in a folder or binder. All sections should be typed and double-spaced. Each section should be separated using labeled dividers.

Directions:

Section 1: READING ASSESSMENTS:Administer a minimum of two VALID reading assessments to use as a benchmark score. Describe each reading assessment you administered as a pretest and a table showing results of each student.

Section 2: Lesson plans for each lesson taught, minimum of five lesson plans reflecting

differentiation of instruction. The lesson plans should follow the Chipola Lesson Plan Format. ESOL strategies must be explicitly stated in your lesson plans. Make sure to use COMMON CORE STANDARDS within your lesson plans.

Section 3: Daily summaries and reflections. For each day spent in the reading classroom observing or teaching, a thorough summary should be written describing strategies the teacher is using. Particular attention should be directed to the ESOL students and instructional strategies the teacher uses to differentiate instruction to meet their learning needs. THE AMOUNT OF SUMMARIES AND REFLECTIONSYOU HAVE SHOULD MEET THE NUMBER OF TIMES ACCORDING TO YOUR OBSERVATION LOG THAT YOU ATTENDED THE CLASSROOM.

Section 4: Administer a minimum of two final assessments to determine your impact on student

instruction and growth in reading. Describe each reading assessment you administered as a posttest and a table showing results of each student.

Section 5: Write a summary statement discussing this experience. You should discuss what you

have learned about differentiating instruction in reading, what you have learned about using ESOL strategies to differentiate instruction for ESOL students, how thisexperience will help you in your own classroom, and describe the impact you have made on instruction and whether your instruction positively impacted student growth in reading.

Section 6: Include the Chipola Practicum Student-Teaching Observation Form that has been

completed and signed by the evaluator. ALSO INCLUDE THE REFELCTION OF THAT LESSON.
