  • 156. Mastering ESL Lesson Planning: A Step-by-Step Path for Success
    2024/12/06

    Are you dreading all the lesson planning you have to do on repeat for your ELL students? Overwhelmed and unsure about how to bring it all together?

    In this episode, Beth Vaucher, founder of Inspiring Young Learners, shares a streamlined approach to ESL lesson planning that reduces teacher workload while better supporting multilingual students. She recommends setting quarterly goals instead of yearly ones, allowing for more flexibility based on students' progress.

    Beth outlines a four-week cycle: start with an initial assessment, followed by three weeks of tailored instruction, and finish with a progress check to see if students are ready to move forward or need more review. She emphasizes setting clear goals for all language domains—listening, speaking, reading, and writing—and aligning them with the homeroom curriculum.

    Collaboration with homeroom teachers helps ensure goals are achievable, and sharing them with students boosts motivation. Beth also stresses continuous observation, using tools like spreadsheets or notes to track development. She recommends using WIDA proficiency level descriptors (PLDs) for ongoing language assessment instead of relying on annual tests.

    Resources mentioned in the episode:

    • Generic Rubrics for ELLs
    • WIDA Can Do Descriptors
    • Progress Monitoring Assessments
