1. Investigate the World

• Students investigate the world beyond their immediate environment. (similar to last year)– Students can

• Use knowledge of language and culture to identify issues and frame researchable questions of local, regional, or global significance.

• Use their knowledge of language and culture to develop an argument based on compelling evidence that considers multiple perspectives and draws defensible conclusions about a globally significant issue.

2. Recognize Perspectives

• Students recognize their own and others’ perspectives.– Students can

• Recognize and express their own perspective on situations, events, issues, or phenomena, and identify the cultural, social, economical, political, geographical, and historical influences that inform that perspective.

• Examine the role of place, time, culture, society, and resources in the perspectives held by people, groups, and/or schools of thought.

Communicate Ideas

• Students communicate their ideas effectively with diverse audiences.– Students can

• Recognize and express how diverse audiences may interpret and use the same information in different ways and for different purposes and how that affects communication and collaboration.

• Explain how individuals, societies, events, and the development of knowledge are influenced by the movement and interaction of ideas, goods, capital, and people.

Take Action

• Students translate their ideas and findings into appropriate actions to improve conditions.– Students can

• Identify and create opportunities for personal and collaborative action and civic engagement to contribute to sustainable improvements and quality of life.

• Assess options, plan actions, and engage in civil discourse, considering previous approaches, varied perspectives, political viability, and potential consequences.

Immersion Protocols

1. High ratio of native speakers to teachers will provide maximum Comprehensible Input.

– Use the target language as much as possible

2. Teachers will engage in cultural learning experiences while listening in a world language.

– Teachers may experience some initial discomfort – Focus is on building listening skills (not speaking)

Immersion Protocols

• This contextual support, along with the repetition of key words will help the students create meaning.– Facilitators should support UNDERSTANDING through

gestures, slower speech, repetition• Teachers will further engage with the world

language through a variety of interactive activities designed to promote student choice.– Teachers are allowed to process the information in

English, ask for clarification etc.

Strategy Session Protocols

• Join in small group discussion (English ok)

• Garner strategies for implementation in YOUR school plan

• Develop a complete Action Plan
