Teacher Model

Teacher 1: I think I would describe Frog Girl as smart. Teacher 2: Why do you think that? Teacher 1: Well, when everything was shaking and the volcano was erupting, she figured out she needed to take the frogs back to the grandmother. Teacher 2: But she could be smart and know to take the frogs back but be too scared to do it, and then the village would still have been destroyed. Teacher 1: Ok, so how would you describe Frog Girl? Teacher 2: I think she’s also brave, because she took the frogs back to the grandmother even though there was a fire and she didn’t know where her family was. Teacher 1: I guess that is true. She could have run away instead. But I still think she’s smart. Teacher 2: Ok, maybe we can say that Frog Girl is both brave and smart. She was smart because she figured out how to save her village, and she was brave for taking the frogs back to grandmother even though it was scary. Teacher 1: Ok, I agree!

Reflection Questions

  • 1. How do you currently use formative assessment to inform

your planning and instruction?

  • 2. Do you currently use the ELP Standards and Level

Descriptors to analyze and support your students’ content and language learning? If so, how? And if not, how can you envision doing this in the future?

  • 3. What questions do you still have about using the ELP

Standards to bolster the formative assessment process?
