Instruction and Assessment Teacher Checklist

Use this checklist to reflect on your own teaching of deaf and hard of hearing students. ASL/English bilingual instruction means using ASL and English on purpose, each for a clear reason, rather than mixing them at random. The checklist asks whether you plan intentional language use, whether students actively use both languages, whether you differentiate with scaffolds and multiple entry points so all learners can reach rigorous content, whether assessment is woven into instruction and accessible in ASL or English, whether you use both ASL and English data to adjust teaching, and whether you apply professional learning. Reflection prompts help you name next steps.
