WIDA
WIDA provides language development resources to those who support the academic success of multilingual learners
Funded by the grant, WIDA developed the 2004 WIDA English Language Proficiency Standards, which served as the basis for the ACCESS for ELLs test of English Language Proficiency.
Can Do Descriptors
The Can Do Descriptors highlight what language learners can do at various stages of language development as they engage in K-12 English language development.
Similar to the WIDA Language Development Standards, the Can Do Descriptors represent what learners can do with language across different content areas. Although the Can Do Descriptors relate to the Standards, they don’t replace them but supplement them during instruction.
