Collaborative Conversations

specific academic language while also
providing an opportunity for extended

A Comprehensive Approach
“ELs at all English Proficiency levels and all ages
require both integrated and designated ELD. Such
multilayered application of the CA ELD Standards
requires deep collaboration between educators,
support for teachers and most importantly a
sustained focus on the strengths and needs of
individual ELs and a persistent belief that all ELs can
achieve the highest levels of academic and linguistic
excellence”
