The Best Websites For Developing Academic English Skills & Vocabulary

Enriching Academic Vocabulary: Strategies for Teaching Tier Two Words to E.L.L. Students is the headline of another one of my posts for The New York Times.

Like the resources on most of the others, the sites on this list can be helpful to both English Language Learners and native-English speakers alike.

One way this list is different from the others is that I don’t rank them in terms of which ones I like the best. You might also be interested in The Best Sites Where ELL’s Can Learn Vocabulary.

About the EdSteps Skills. EdSteps does not believe that these are the only five skills students should learn or even that these are the most important five.

About the EdSteps Skills

These skills are the five that the initiative will start examining, with the hope of adding additional skills over the next few years. To prepare for collecting and rating student work, EdSteps formed separate workgroups for each skill area. Each workgroup is comprised of about 10-20 people, representing state departments of education, researchers, professors from colleges and universities, and other leading advocates and educators.

The task of each workgroup is to bring together the best research, evidence and thinking to define the skill or competency area, determine what types of student work to collect, and then determine a meaningful process to review the student work samples.

Moving the Common Core State Standards from Adoption to Implementation to Sustainability

If you’re an educator in one of the 46 states that has adopted the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), you’ve not only been learning about the standards and what they mean for you and your students, but you’ve most likely begun implementing them as well. As you’ve been busy moving forward, you probably still have a great deal of questions. Does your district or school have the technological capacity to administer the new computer-based assessments?

How can you better leverage technology for teaching to the standards? How can you take your understanding of the standards and translate them into effective lesson plans? You’re not alone. So what are your colleagues saying about the standards? Common Core State Standards - Resources. The Common Core State Standards: Supporting Districts and Teachers with Text Complexity.

MagellanTech4U - Core Essentials Online Resources. Are "just right" books right for the Common Core? In the 1990s, much of the fireworks in the education policy debate centered around a “reading war” where supporters of whole language squared off against the forces of phonics. Now, in the Common Core era, I predict a similar firestorm is on the horizon. Only this time, the debate will not be about how to teach students to read in the first place, but rather how to help them build knowledge and improve comprehension over time. More specifically: It’s about how to choose the books you are asking students to read. And the outcome of this debate could go a long way towards deciding the long-term impact of CCSS ELA standards.

There are two camps in debate over how to select and assign texts. The prevailing view among many educators in the United States today is that the best way to improve student reading comprehension is to assign lots books that are “just right” for individual students. Makes sense, right? Not necessarily. Tasks, Units & Student Work - Common Core Library.
