I'm really interested to hear from people who teach phases 1-3 and get some ideas for units.



from Carolin

Having completed the workshop, my challenges remain the same. I feel that I know the guide better, but I still don't have any more ideas for units and assessments for low phases.

I would like to get more clarification on that. I have already read the description of the criteria on pages 9 and 10 of the Language Acquisition guide.

Thank you,

In our department, I think the hardest thing is creating a Statement of Inquiry that is meaningful and at the students' ability to learn. Many times, our SOI is too profound for the students who are new to the language.

I know how to write unit planners and task-specific criteria, but I would like to see more examples of unit planners and rubrics for Language Acquisition to see how they are different.
