FIRST SEMESTER EMPHASIS: FOCUS ON ANNUAL PROGRESS
Made possible by -
- Knowing TELPAS and STAAR/EOC scores of your ELLs,
- Reflecting on how students' current Proficiency Levels of English impact desirable student and teacher behaviors (balancing accountability with support levels),
- Setting measurable and attainable content and language acquisition goals for individual learners that reflect annual progress, and
- Planning learning activities with ELLs in mind.
2015 Spring TELPAS/LPAC Activities
In February, campus LPACs will make state assessment decisions for all ELLs - have your recommendations ready based on which linguistic instructional accommodations have been successful for individual ELLs.
Be prepared to provide TELPAS ratings for K-12th grade ELLs this spring - tips here!
