Students must be able to use language in a variety of situations for success in school, including language for community, as well as academic content. Participants will view an innovative assessment instrument that measures language proficiency in two areas: school/social language, and academic language. Aligned with three sets of standards (TESOL; California ELD; and CCSS) the assessment results provide teachers a perspective that can be used to focus instruction, provide interventions, and offer ongoing support.
