  2. Improving Access For English Language Learners

  3. Translation Tools • Several translation tools are available for making your curriculum available in a student’s primary language: • If you are using Microsoft Office XP, right click on the document and translate will be at the bottom of the box which appears. When you click on translate, a pane will appear.

  4. Using the Internet • Google Search engine 1. Type in Google.com 2. Below the search window you will see language tools. Click on Language tools. 3. Highlight the text you want to translate. 4. Select the language to translate to. 5. Press ok

  5. Rubrics Rubrics are tools to use in grading assessments and in making sure students understand exactly what they are being asked to create, learn or understand. Often the are called a scoring guide and align closely to the district or state standards being addressed in a unit. Rubrics can be considered a learning target or a learning goal/tool. The challenge is to create a rubric as you design the unit so you and the students know exactly what the final product should be. In Visalia Unified, we use a four point rubric.

  6. One tool I have used to create rubrics is at the website 4teachers.org • The link you want is called Rubistar • You can create your own rubric or search the • Subject field to find rubrics that have already been created. The hardest part is deciding exactly what you want or expect kids to do. • Rubistar gives you the option of translating directly to Spanish so you can print you rubrics in English and Spanish. This helps parents know what is being expected of their child if they read only Spanish. • I had trouble trying to copy them from a word document into a Power Point so I have made copies of a few sample rubrics. As I have used them, I have discovered areas where I needed to be more specific to make sure students knew exactly what I wanted them to learn, know, accomplish, etc.. As you know, practice makes perfect. The greatest disappointments are often the lack of student success due to the lack of a clear target they are intending to reach.
