CI5614: Curriculum and Planning for Multilingual Learners

In this course, teacher candidates will develop language-centered, culturally-relevant unit and lesson plans using a backwards design model. We will focus on the "what?" and "why?" of lesson planning, whereas CI 5612 will place more emphasis on the "how?" National and state frameworks (ACTFL, WIDA) as well as the MN content standards will be explored and applied, along with knowledge of students’ assets and proficiency levels. Teacher candidates will develop performance-based assessments and related success criteria, as well as differentiated daily plans. A range of models and templates for lesson design will be presented.
