The English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS) are the TEKS of Language Acquisition and should be the drivers for Emergent Bilingual (EB) students' classroom instruction in ALL language modalities. Come and learn how to meaningfully incorporate differentiated language instruction that leads to genuine content mastery! We will explore creating powerful and measurable content and language objectives; a gradual release of instruction that empowers EBs to acquire rigorous academic vocabulary tied directly to objectives; and how to differentiate for ALL language modalities, listening, speaking, reading, and writing at all levels of student ability (beginner, intermediate, advanced and advanced high).
