    Learning Outcome Pedagogical Intent Student Position

    Use language and content objectives in teaching standards-based ESL instruction and State Core Curriculum.

    Assessment: 50 pts.

    Due: Session 4

    		 Teachers can use their knowledge of planning and teaching lessons using objectives to meet state standards. They can now write language objectives that will enable them to better promote the development of language and literacy as they teach content. 

    Students have developed knowledge of how to promote ELLs language and literacy development in their regular classroom. They are positioned to create better language and content objectives to support their instruction.
