  11. Features of Academic Language

  12. Research and Strategies ExC-ELL: Expediting Comprehension for English Language Learners •ExC-ELL—a research-based and evidence-based instruction for adolescent literacy, language, and domain knowledge development.

  13. The Tiers of Language • Tier 1 : Everyday words, social, instructional • Tier 2 : Tier 2 words nest academic content through transition Words, Connectors, Causation, Time Sequencing, Predictions.Polysemous Words • Tier 3 : Content Specific Language

  14.

  15. Tier 2 words can also include polysemous wordsacross academic content areas: solution table divide prime round trunk state power cell right radical leg left

  16. Introduction to Tiering STEP 1 SELECT VOCABULARY TO PRE-TEACH BEFORE PRESENTING CONTENT, TEACHER READ ALOUD, OR STUDENT READING OF ANY TEXT. STEP 2 TEACH VOCABULARY USING 7 STEPS WITH AMPLE STUDENT INTERACTION. STEP 3 STUDENTS READ, DISCUSS, AND WRITE USING NEW VOCABULARY

  17. To Tier or Not to Tier • At your table, determine what tier you think the words would fall into. • Use the tiering guideline at your table to assist you in placing them in the proper tier. • Never fear...be prepared to share!

  18. Let’s Practice! One gray winter day the elderly queen summoned all her grandchildren to the castle. “I have been fortunate to have lived a long life,” she said. “But in time your generationwill rule the country. You must work persistently to help the people and take care of the land. “We will always work hard,” the children replied. “You must also be faithful to your brothers and sisters, no matter what,” the queen said.

  19. Independent Practice • Read the story at your table and underline words or phrases you "think" an 5th grade student might have difficulty understanding. • Focus on words that would be specific to their comprehension (understanding) of the story.

  20. A Change In Climate From one day to the next, weather can have a big effect on your life. When it rains, you have to stay indoors or carry an umbrella. When it's cold, you have to bundle up. Over the course of hundreds, thousands, and millions of years, weather trends affect life on Earth in more dramatic ways. Ice ages or long droughts, for example, can wipe out certain types of plants and animals. Although many species manage to survive such extreme, long-term climate shifts, their living conditions also change.

  21. The 7 Steps 1.Teacher says the word. 2.Teacher asks students to repeat the word 3 times. (can be done in a funny voice, a character voice, with inflection, facial expressions, gestures, etc...) 3.Teacher states the word in context from the text. 4.Teacher provides the dictionary definition(s). 5.Teacher explains meaning with student-friendly definitions. 6.Engages students in activities to develop word/concept knowledge. 7.Teacher highlights grammar, spelling, polysemy, etc.

  22. Over the course Example with ExC-ELL Template
