A new section called Standards-Based Resources provides student writing samples as models of interpreting the WIDA performance definitions, shows formative uses for the WIDA Speaking and Writing Rubrics, and offers guidance on the use of the CAN DO Descriptors. You can preview the contents of the standards and Resource Guide on the WIDA web site.
