Pre-Production
|
Offer simple stems to guide responses such as “I learned ___.” or “An example is ___.” Use visuals, icons, or a bilingual word bank with key vocabulary. Allow students to point, gesture, or draw ideas before sharing verbally. |
Beginning
|
Use guiding questions to help students recall learning (e.g., “What are three ideas you learned?” or “What are two examples of how this can be used?”). Provide a partially completed 3-2-1 template and sentence frames such as “One thing I learned is ___.” |
Intermediate
|
Provide frames for more detailed responses such as “I learned ___, which is important because ___.” or “This can be applied by ___.” Encourage students to discuss their summaries with a partner and refine their explanations. |
High Intermediate
|
Ask students to include multiple perspectives or interpretations in their examples and conclusions. Encourage connections to broader concepts or real-world situations with prompts such as “How does this idea connect to ___?” |
Advanced
|
Challenge students to synthesize their learning, explain why the ideas are significant, and apply the concept to a new situation or problem using precise academic language. |
