WIDA

Discover, a flexible, on-demand language proficiency assessment, WIDA MODEL, which can be administered at any time during the school year, depending on the needs of the district, school, or student.
WIDA training offers support in the implementation of WIDA testing, which allows educators to identify a student's particular English language need. WIDA testing can be used to track growth in language acquisition and can identify students with language needs. With WIDA 'Can do' descriptors, educators are able to provide differentiated instruction for language in a straightforward manner. 
WIDA MODEL (Measure of Developing English Language) is a suite of English language proficiency assessments for grades K-12.  WIDA provides age-appropriate resources for language development. This approach allows teachers to notice what students can do and to scaffold learning targets that support language growth. It serves as an interim assessment during the school year, providing information that informs instructional planning and other decisions related to students' education.
