Other Study Tools
I would recommend studying from: Peregoy & Boyle (2012) Reading, Writing, and Learning in ESL: A Resource Book for Teaching K-12 English Learners. Also, study the WIDA performance definition levels. You will be expected to know what each level means, with reference to the name, not the number level.
