May we please get the ESOL Ed Plan in Aspen updated to include the documentation of accommodations for ELLs? This is important to ensure consistent implementation of those accommodations.

May we please get the tasker for training ESOL teachers released to superintendents since the time-frame is short.

Principal Training for ESOL Team Accommodations Decision-making

# data[].attributes.body
I am aware that principals had an overview of the PARCC as a training; but I question if they are aware of their role in the ESOL Student Team decisions about accommodations. Will a specific training for ESOL accommodations be provided?

# data[].attributes.body
ESOL teachers and classroom teachers regularly, daily, translate directions and restate them in the native language; but they have not been documented in the accommodations list. May we add that to the list of accommodations since it is an on-going practice?

May we get PD funding for releasing the MS/HS ESOL teachers who need substitutes?

When will the PPT be ready for ISSs to use with ESOL teachers?

This PPT will be uploaded to Schoology, as Maria stated, hopefully by the end of the day.

Maria will modify for use with teachers and it will be posted within a week or so.

Which PPT will we use for the ESOL Teacher Training? Will the tool mentioned be available before winter break?

yes

How is the input collected from the teachers, parents, admin. and students? Some schools have large populations (300+ ELLs).

Can this include 1st language explanation based on similar practices in the classroom instruction?

Is there a limit to only 3 accommodations per student? Does this limit include all the tables of accommodations? No

We have traditionally allowed Level 1 and 2 to take the alternative assessment; so is this now a specific change to who we allow to take the alternative (1st year only)?

[

Is it only ELA and Literacy exempt?

,

First year, level 1's?  Or first year any level?

First year Level 1s

So, to be clear; we are now testing all level 2 ESL students.

What?  There was no clarification...

Tom, it could be level 2s too, as long as Student Review Team agrees I believe.

test

[‎12/‎5/‎2017 1:16 PM] Bencheikh, Fatiha:

Will 1st year students take an alternate test?

[‎12/‎5/‎2017 1:17 PM] Eng, Loretta C Ms. CIV OSD/DoDEA-Pacific:

Regardless levels-only the first year in the US or DoDEA school

So, the "pre-determined" must be consistent with on-going classroom practices, right? It cannot be 'pre-determined' just for the PARCC. Is this correct?

It is usually the Reading sub-test/Literacy/ELA that is exempt for the first year ELL students because annual English language assessment is in lieu of this test. Could we clarify that we can exempt first year ELLs from math assessment?

ETs and Assessment Coordinators asked me yesterday if there was an equivalent to the Cat-Plus (computation only math) for the Alternative Assessment. Is there a component like this?
