Philosophy of the curriculum
The English as a Second Language curriculum is not a stand-alone document. It is an integrated curriculum that is aligned to prepare English language learners (ELLs) to meet the English language proficiency standards, the common core state standards (CCSS), and the World-Class Instructional Design and Assessment English Language Development (WIDA ELD) standards. In order to accomplish this, the ESL curriculum incorporates the development of language and literacy skills for use across all subject areas. Rigor and relevance is introduced in the form of discourse, technological applications, and sociocultural contexts for language use involving interaction between the student and the language environment.
Although the listening and speaking skills are stressed for students at the lowest levels of English language acquisition, reading and writing should be included from the beginning. Specifically, efforts are made at the start to connect listening and speaking at all levels. These skills should be taught together with reading assignments related to, or coming out of writing tasks whenever possible. ESL writing instruction begins early on to support the development of increased vocabulary and improved thinking skills. The writing is used as concrete evidence of individual achievement, and serves to enrich comprehension of both written and spoken language at all levels.
The instructional model used by sheltered and ESL staff is Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP). This is a research-based and validated instructional model that has proven effective in addressing the academic needs of English learners throughout the United States. The SIOP Model consists of eight interrelated components:
Lesson Preparation Building Background Comprehensible Input Strategies Interaction Practice/Application Lesson Delivery Review & Assessment
