1Why should teachers consider understanding language acquisition through theories?

- AUnderstanding theories make you smarter.
- BThese theories give insight into how we learn a language.
- CThey shouldn't. Learning about the past doesn't matter.
- DIt will help you memorize more vocabulary.
2Optimal [blank_start]input[blank_end] hypothesis states that we acquire language and develop literacy from [blank_start]input[blank_end] from understanding what we [blank_start]hear and read[blank_end], not from [blank_start]speaking and writing[blank_end].
- Ainput
- Boutput
- Cinput
- Doutput
- Ehear and read
- Fspeak and write
- Gspeaking and writing
- Hhearing and reading
3Which statement is NOT true?
A good example of optimal input is:
- Aproviding access to easy books with pictures
- Blistening to stories that are made comprehensible in a variety of ways
- Csimple repetition, drilling activities
- Dimmersion but only if they contain large amounts of optimal (not heavy) input
4Language disorders and/or cognitive problems are more prevalent within the ELL community.
- AVerdadero

5In order, the 6 stages of second-language acquisition are as follows: [blank_start]pre-production[blank_end], [blank_start]early production[blank_end], [blank_start]speech emergent[blank_end], [blank_start]beginning fluency[blank_end], [blank_start]intermediate fluency[blank_end], and [blank_start]advanced fluency[blank_end].
- Apre-production
- Bearly production
- Cspeech emergent
- Dbeginning fluency
- Eintermediate fluency
- Fadvanced fluency
6What is the zone of proximal development?
- Athe amount of time a student can study before they get tired
- Bthe area just beyond where the student is able to perform independently
- Cthe distance between what a student can do alone and what they can do with a calculator
- Dthe range of grades a student can achieve without any help
7Which descriptions are characteristics of a student who is in the early production stage of second-language acquisition? (May choose more than 1)
- Aproduces 1-2 word responses
- Bemphasis on listening and is not verbal (silent)
- Climited comprehension
- Dable to use key words and familiar phrases
- Efairly fluent in social situations
8Which descriptions are characteristics of a student who is in the intermediate fluency stage of second-language acquisition? (May choose more than 1)
- Aable to speak fluently in new situations and academic areas with some gaps
- Bsilent period
- Crelies on context clues and familiar topics
- Dable to demonstrate higher order thinking skills in the new language (e.g., offering an opinion or analyzing a problem)
- Eessentially fluent; native-like speech and comprehension
9English language learners tend to learn [blank_start]social[blank_end] language more quickly than [blank_start]academic[blank_end] language.
- Asocial
- Bacademic
10There is an ELL student at the preproduction stage of second-language acquisition. According to Hill's (2016) tiered questioning strategy, what sort of questions should their teacher ask in order to optimize learning?
- AAll kinds of questions. The more questions the student is given, the more they're cognitively and linguistically stimulated.
- BStrictly stick to prompts/questions within their proficiency/stage level
Example:
show me...
where is...?
circle the... - CDepending on their progress, the teacher can ask questions matched to their level as well as a few prompts/question matched to the next higher level
- DELL students should be given the same questions as the other students so they don't feel separated and/or othered
11At what stage of second-language acquisition do students need more explicit correction and feedback, even on errors that don't directly affect meaning?
- AEarly Production
- BSpeech Emergent
- CBeginning Fluency
- DIntermediate Fluency
- EAdvanced Fluency
- FPreproduction
