Western Governors University
The instructional setting is an 8th grade English class consisting of thirty students with
various ethnicities, backgrounds, and ability levels. Learning levels range from one grade below
grade level to two grades above grade level. This classroom also consists of students with
Individualized Learning Plans (IEP), as well as English Language Learners (ELL). The
classroom is set up in a way that the instructor can easily navigate between rows of students and
is able to teach from any point in the room. The students with IEPs have preferential seating
near the front of the room. The lesson on figurative language focuses on the following three
different objectives:
● Students will be able to distinguish between literal and figurative language
● Students will create examples of figurative language
● Students will identify seven different types of figurative language
Additionally, students were given a summative assessment containing an objective section
consisting of ten multiple choice questions, as well as a performance section made up of three
questions scored by a rubric.
Vincent Flores is an 8th grade ELL student in this English class with his primary
language being Spanish. The ELL plan indicates that Vincent´s English proficiency level is
, emerging and often produces language with errors which hinders his ability to produce and
understand meaningful conversations. Vincent has difficulty understanding and speaking
English, which is impacting his ability to grasp academic concepts. Furthermore, Vincent scored
a 60% on the objective assessment and a 66% on the performance assessment, leaving him with
a cumulative score of 63%.
The first aspect of the summative assessment that does not meet Vincent’s needs is the
fact that the objective assessment requires Vincent to read and answer multiple choice questions
in a language that he is not proficient in speaking, reading, or writing. This could account for his
poor performance score of 60%. This portion of the test would be difficult for Vincent given his
WIDA level is at the emerging stage. Given this aspect, I would provide Vincent with an online
assessment with a text-to-speech feature so that he is able to have his assessment read to him.
Vincent’s ELLSEP states that he can have a test read to him under testing modifications, which
would allow for a more accurate depiction of his content area skills. By modifying the
assessment to use a text-to-speech feature, Vincent would be able to hear and understand what is
being asked of him rather than misinterpreting the information due to his language barrier. In
doing so, the teacher would have a better idea of Vincent’s comprehension and knowledge
acquisition regarding the figurative language content skill.
The second aspect that does not meet Vincent’s learning needs is identified in the
performance assessment. In this assessment, Vincent is required to write three sentences using
correct punctuation and capitalization, as well as correctly identify the figurative language used.
