Tracking Scholars' Data - Suggestions and Material Samples

This is another one of my favorite things to share! I remember when I used to have binders and more binders, all color coded to track all the data, year-round, for all my ELs - from newcomers' initial evaluations to Exited ELs monitoring status. Let's not forget their classroom performance notes and applicable strategies for each scholar based on their language needs. Just talking about it can be exhausting and seem like an impossible task to complete effectively. Well, not anymore! Here are some of the tools and strategies I have used to make this task more manageable for me as the only ESL teacher at my current school. However, if you have multiple ESL teacher, this should make things even easier for your team.

My district uses WIDA to screen, assess and monitor English Learners. Since the scores for the 4 language domains - listening, speaking, reading and writing - come in whole and decimal numbers, I use a graph to assist scholars in understanding their scores and take ownership of their language goals. With this graph, scholars can color the ACCESS graph based on their scores and set up goals for the school year. We keep the graph all year in our ESL folder and revisit the graph and goals as a monitoring tool for scholars.
