1. What are the elements of a strong content/language objective?

2.  Analyze aspects of a content/language objective (CLO)  Identify parts of a CLO  Write 1-2 CLOs as a group  Questions

3.  1: Content  2: Targeted Domain  3: Language Function  4: Language Form  5: Differentiated Supports * The objective does NOT need to be posted, however all of these parts should be seen throughout the lesson by the observer and should be explicitly taught to your students.

4. What are students learning?  Objective content should be linked to the Common Core Standards/Colorado Academic Standards  Measureable  Rigorous

5. What domain will I specifically target in this lesson?  Reading  Writing  Speaking  Listening

6. How will students use language in this lesson?  Explain and Describe  Compare and Contrast  Justify  Predict  Summarize  Sequence

7. What grammatical structures of the language and/or what academic vocabulary will I expect my students to use?  Specific academic vocabulary: (triangle lesson: equilateral, isosceles, right)  Grammatical vocabulary:(compare and contrast- alike-different, similarly-in contrast)  Grammatical structures: (complete sentences with past tense verbs, adverbs, adjectives, etc)

8. What will my leveled (1-2, 3-4, on grade) language learners need to understand the content?  Supports are for language not content  Supports should look different for each group  Examples may include graphic organizers, visuals, word banks, labeled pictures, sentence stems/frames, bilingual materials, etc.

9. Students will orally explain, using sequential words (first, second, …), how to solve a system of linear equations by graphing with their partners: a) using labeled cards b) using discussion cards c) using multiple pairs of linear equations

10. Students will orally infer how technology impacts war by using cause and effect language with: a) sentence stems b) a list of causal language Directions: On scratch paper identify the content, function, form, domain, and supports used in the above content/language objective.

11. 4.1 Multiples of Equal Groups Objectives: To review multiplication and equal groups; and to provide opportunities to solve and write number stories involving equal groups  Questions: What domain will I target? (writing, speaking)  What language function will students use? (explain, justify)  What grammatical structure or academic vocab will I expect? (multiply, groups, sequence words)  What supports will my language learners need to access content?

12. Students activate prior knowledge and monitor their thinking as readers. Getting the Meaning—Use knowledge from their own experiences to make sense of and talk about text. (2 nd grade Unit 2 lesson 2)

13. How has this presentation expanded/changed your thinking? What questions do you still have? What further practice do you still need?
