This concept tool provides ideas for leaders about integrating play into their settings through professional learning, school or program structures, and family and community engagement. This is the fifth resource of five specifically intended to support PreK-3 leaders to advocate for and incorporate joyful learning with multilingual children in their setting.

This WIDA Webinar provides a brief introduction to teaching in PreK-3, an emerging WIDA topic area, followed by a specific focus on play. We discuss what joyful learning is, why it is ideal for multilingual children’s language development and learning, and present ideas about how you might integrate more joyful learning into PreK-third grade classrooms and programs.

This report describes a research study conducted by WIDA to link scores on the WIDA MODEL Online tests of Listening, Reading, Speaking, and Writing to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). The results of the study are cut scores for each of the four language domain tests that are recommended for classifying test takers according to the levels of the CEFR.

This research brief presents findings and policy implications from a recent research study exploring the so-called long-term English learner (LTEL) population across WIDA states. The findings highlight a continuing need for research that rejects an overly simplistic understanding of the LTEL designation. The next phase of this research will use student- and school-level data from three states to examine how individual and school factors can affect the diverse trajectories of ELs’ language development over time.
