Long Range Goals
Achieve consistency and continuity in our understanding of SDAIE and how we communicate it to all stakeholders.
Implement effective district-wide use of SDAIE to provide access to core curriculum for English learners.
Build a Culturally Relevant and Responsive (CRRE) learning environment incorporating the different ways our students learn, behave, and use communicative language patterns.
3
Objectives
1.Share English learner achievement data.
2.Acquire a common definition of SDAIE/sheltered instruction that can be operationalized throughout the district.
3. Identify the features within the four critical elements of SDAIE.
4.Develop a common lexicon to describe SDAIE and its characteristics.

“Universal Access (UA) refers to the right of all students to have equal opportunity and access to high quality, grade-level instruction regardless of socio-economic status, ethnicity, background, or disabilities. In order to ensure UA for all, instruction is differentiated to meet students’ needs.” p.3

NCLB Student Achievement Targets
All Subgroups must meet Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) in ELA and math for LAUSD to exit PI
• Annual progress for English Learners is measured by the following Annual Measurable Achievement Objectives:
– AMAO 1: Percent making annual progress in English– AMAO 2: Percent attaining English proficiency– AMAO 3: Percent proficient in ELA and Math

Title III Action Plan Tenets All students have access to robust/rigorous first
teaching
All English Learners have access to appropriate ELD
Implement common access to core strategies for math and English language arts in Kindergarten - 12th grades
Professional Development for teachers, administrators, and support staff aligned to AMAOs 1-3

SDAIE: Specially Designed Academic Instruction in English
SDAIE is a methodology (a set of specific strategies) designed to make instruction comprehensible and to make grade level academic content accessible for English learners.
19
Effective Access to Core instruction is characterized by four critical elements:
“3 C’s and an I”
Four Critical Elements of SDAIE
Content Connections Comprehensibility
Interaction

21
Four Critical Elements of SDAIE:Reading Activity
Select a recorder, timekeeper and reporter for your group
Read assigned section/s on your own
Table Talk - Identify 4-5 key points/critical features of the section/s
- Chart key points on the Divided Circle Map

Group Share
24
Content
Determine key concepts and skills from state frameworks and standards
Design lesson objectives that focus on specific concepts and language
Use district/state adopted grade level curriculum
Choose ancillary text and other materials that help clarify the content
25
Connections
Build connections between what is to be learned and what students already know. Take into consideration:
- Previous content learning
- Processes and skills learned (e.g., Think-Pair- Share, outlines)
- Personal experiences (e.g., selecting culturally responsive examples from the student’s life to illustrate a key concept)
Organize lessons that build on previous knowledge
26
Content Connections
Comprehensibility
SDAIE
27
Comprehensibility
Combine visual clues such as pictures, diagrams with verbal and written communication
Make a one to one correspondence between spoken and written concept and the visual clue
Control range and diversity of vocabulary (e.g., idiomatic expressions)
Repeat new key words in different context and chart them
Check frequently for comprehension
28
Content Connections
Comprehensibility
SDAIE
Interaction
29
Interaction
Use a variety of groupings
Use modeling and sentence frames to scaffold academic language development
Make sure students use targeted academic language
Ask many and varied questions

Video Observation
32
Video Observation Activity
Identify features of each of the critical elements as you observe the video clip
Record your observations on handout
- Table Talk
Group Share

High school SDAIE Chemistry lesson
Main Standard: 5. Acids, bases, and salts are three classes of compounds that form ions in water solutions.
Focus Standard: 5a. Students know the observable properties of acids, bases, and salt solutions.
35
Clear content and language objectives
Tapped students personal experienceswith chemicals
Briefly reviewed previous learning
Reinforced previously learned vocabulary
Teacher to student interaction only
Asked questions
Restated vocabulary
Used key vocabulary in different context
Combined visual clues with verbal communication
One to one correspondence between spoken and written vocabulary to the visual clue

“A language is not just a grammar and a vocabulary. It is a flash of the human spirit. The soul of a culture, the old-growth forest of the mind.”
