WIDA English Language Development Standards
Under Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), all teachers teaching English Learners (ELs) must implement ELD Standards in their lesson plan and core instruction.
Here you will find one video at a time as a refresher and a quiz to test your knowledge. The more you know!
Standard 1: English language learners communicate for Social and Instructional purposes within the school setting.
English Learners are striving to learn social and academic language. The US Department of Education recommends that a set of academic vocabulary words should be taught intensively across several days using a variety of instructional activities.
Implementing the WIDA ELD Standards in your lesson plan will facilitate this process.
