Elements of Model Performance Indicators
The Model Performance Indicator (MPI) is a single cell within the standards matrix that is descriptive to a specific english language development for a language domain.
• Language function: describes how students use language to demonstrate their proficiency
• Content stem/example topic: specifies context for language instruction; derived from state content standards
• Support: sensory, graphic, or interactive resources embedded in instruction and assessment that help students construct meaning from language and content

Transforming an MPI strand
• select an MPI from the WIDA® ELP Standards and Resource Guide
• identify and transform the language domain• identify the language function and transform
it• identify and transform the topic• identify and transform the supports

Reflection
• Were the objectives covered?• How can we (the ESL staff) better support
you?
