8. Guiding Principles for the Instruction of SELs • SELs possess a variety of linguistic and cultural abilities that are viewed as assets. • Focused instruction for these students builds on their cultural and linguistic strengths, and provides meaningful access to a curriculum that is standards-based, cognitively complex, rigorous and coherent. • All teachers are teachers of both language and content Chapter 4 LAUSD Master Plan p. 83

11. Culturally and Linguistically Responsive Pedagogy Defined • “The use of cultural knowledge, prior experiences, frames of reference, and performance styles of ethnically diverse students to make learning encounters more relevant to, and effective for, them. The pedagogy teaches to and through the strengths of these students.” Dr. Geneva Gay

12. Rings of Culture Age Directions: Identify a potential behavior that is associated with each one of these rings of culture. -Whip Around Gender Religion Class Nationality Ethnic

13. Culturally and Linguistically Responsive Pedagogy (CLR) CLR Informs the Instructional Context for Learning within the ELA/ELD Framework

14. Five CLR Pedagogical AreasWhen looking at instruction from the what and the how perspective there are five general areas that we have identified where CLR can have immediate impact by increasing student motivation and engagement. Infusing Situational Appropriateness with Language and Behavior (Responsive Language) Creating an Inviting Learning Environment for Student Success (Responsive Environment)

15. Four Areas for Infusing CLR Pedagogy Responsive Classroom Management Use of attention signals strategically: Use of movement activities strategically: Collaborative opportunities (extended beyond protocols) • Responsive Academic Vocabulary • Evidence of leveling vocabulary words (tier 2 and tier 3) • Evidence of reinforcement/practice activities • Use of vocabulary acquisition strategies (word structure, apposition, context clues, synonym replacement) Responsive Academic Literacy Use of CR text and media Connected to the standards and unit theme Use of engaging read-alouds Use of effective literacy strategies • Responsive Academic Language • Code-switching opportunities • Sentence lifting/Retellings/Role playing/Teachable moments • Revising (phonetics, markers, syntax, and vocabulary

30. Language Focus & Collaborative Learning Across the Curriculum • The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) call upon allacademic content teachers to focus on academic vocabulary, oral language, and discourse patterns that are essential for participation in academic work within their disciplines. • The CCSS recognize that students need to develop skills to collaborate in academic work – skills for teamwork, active and skillful participation in discussions, and inquiry-based collaboration.

32. ELA/ELD Framework CA ELA/ELD Framework Chapter 9

33. Standard English Learners (SELs) are those students for whom Standard English is not native, and whose home languages differ in structure and form from the language of school. These students are generally classified as EO or IFEP but do not speak Standard English. In LAUSD, Standard English Learners include students from the following groups: African American speakers of African American English (AAL) Mexican American speakers of Chicano English (MxAL) Hawaiian American speakers of Hawaiian Pidgin (HAL) American Indian speakers of Rez English (NAL) Who are Standard English Language Learners?

34. “Identification” of SELs • Identification of SELs does not take place in the same manner as the identification of ELs. The identification of SELs is done for the purposes of intervention and enrichment, not for purposes of program placement. SELs participate in the Mainstream English Program or other parent choice • To identify a probable SEL, educators must engage in two types of screenings. • Linguistic Screening • Academic Screening

35. Linguistic & Academic Screening Teachers identify the use of home language features in student speech with the Linguistic Screener and or other language assessment tools. Teachers identify academic areas of performance that are below proficient for each Probable SEL Probable SEL

36. New Ways of Talking About Language Language Difference = Language Deficiency Student writing samples that exhibit AAL or MxAL are examples produced by students who are following the grammatical patterns of their home language which are different from Standard English. Writing Sample #1 was written by an African-American SEL, and Writing Sample #2 was written by a Mexican-American SEL. Highlight examples of language difference present in each of the writing samples. Use the snapshots of the Language Screeners provided to identify ( ) the language patterns being followed in each writing sample.
