Assignment Prompt & Instructions

**Assignment 2: Linguistic Feature Analysis & Literacy Support Plan (25 points)**

Task: Students will select a grade-level text (K–12) and conduct a linguistic feature analysis to identify elements that may challenge multilingual learners (e.g., morphology, syntax, academic vocabulary, discourse structures). Then, they will design a specific literacy support plan that integrates reading, writing, listening, and speaking.

_**Examples by Discipline**_

State what discipline you will be completing for the assignment.

**Teaching**

Analyze the text for linguistic and academic demands, which means breaking down what a student must _understand_, _process_, and _produce_ in order to successfully read, discuss, or write about that text. It’s a core skill in TESOL, sheltered instruction, and content‑area teaching because it helps you anticipate where multilingual learners may need scaffolding.

Design instructional supports such as:

– Vocabulary pre‑teaching
– Sentence frames and language objectives
– Guided reading scaffolds
– Think‑alouds and modeling
– Structured partner talk
– Graphic organizers for comprehension

The plan should show how a teacher would **explicitly teach** the language needed to access the text.

**Speech‑Language Pathology**

Identify phonological, morphological, syntactic, or semantic features that may affect comprehension or production. Develop supports such as:

– Explicit teaching of complex syntax
– Oral language scaffolds
– Structured practice with academic vocabulary
– Modeling and repetition
– Visual supports for language structures

**School Counseling**

Adapt text‑based social–emotional learning (SEL) materials for multilingual learners. Include strategies such as:

– Pre‑teaching key SEL vocabulary
– Visuals and scenarios to support comprehension
– Guided discussion prompts
– Role‑play activities
– Sentence starters for expressing emotions or perspectives

**School Psychology**

Analyze cognitive load and language demands in academic tasks. Propose instructional supports such as:

– Chunking complex text
– Think‑aloud modeling
– Graphic organizers for processing information
– Structured peer interaction
– Scaffolds for academic language use

Submit a 4–5 page analysis plus a literacy support plan with instructional strategies. A literacy support plan outlines the specific language supports, scaffolds, and instructional strategies students will need to successfully read, write, speak, and understand the content in a lesson.

It answers three questions:

1. What language will students need?
2. Where will they struggle?
3. What supports will I provide so they can succeed?
