Resource Library

This guide catalogs standards that support educators working with ELs and former ELs.

Based on a 21st century approach to academic literacy that is aligned with today's rigorous standards, this resource provides research-based strategies and practical, hands-on tools to help educators develop effective classroom activities.

The purpose of these guidelines is to provide practitioners with a framework to assist in making appropriate decisions regarding the assessment of ELLs in academic content areas.

English language learners (ELLs)students who are still developing proficiency in English represent a large and rapidly growing subpopulation of students in U.S. classrooms. Accordingly, they are also a key group of students to consider when designing and administering educational assessments.
