WIDA MODEL Kits

The WIDA MODEL (Measure of Developing English Language) is a series of English language proficiency assessments for Kindergarten through Grade 12. MODEL can be used by educators as an identification/placement assessment for newly enrolled ELLs or as an interim progress monitoring assessment.

Features

MODEL test items are written from the model performance indicators of WIDA's five English Language Proficiency (ELP) standards:

• Social & Instructional Language
• Language of Language Arts
• Language of Mathematics
• Language of Science
• Language of Social Studies

Test forms are divided into five grade level clusters:

• Kindergarten
• Grades 1–2
• Grades 3–5
• Grades 6–8
• Grades 9–12

Each form of the test assesses the four language domains of Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing.

MODEL is an adaptive test allowing flexible placement within sections of the test based on student performance.
