FAQ regarding ELLs and their Programs of Instruction: 1.ELLs with IEPs – Students with SPED needs are not excluded from ESL/Bilingual. Services are provided following IEPs. The two programs work in synchrony. 2.Parents of ELLs who waive services – Support through reading interventions and tutorials are in place by schools, as needed (same as for non-ELL gen ed students). Program options are discussed with parents at the time of enrollment. 3.When preparing and delivering lessons, ELL teachers follow not only the Common Core/Illinois Learning Standards, but also the World- Class Instructional Design and Assessment (WIDA) Standards for ELLs (L, S, R, W for Socials Studies, Science, Math, Language Arts and Social Language) – Curricula taught in ELL/Bilingual is the same than the one taught in gen ed. Same depth, scope and rigor. 4.ELLs are integrated with non-ELLs during specials and extra curricular activities – Schedules are created so ELLs in Bilingual ed participate in all school activities with full inclusion..

FAQ regarding ELLs and their Programs of Instruction: 5.Professional Development for teachers of ELLs – Multiple training opportunities and workshops: a) Guided Reading (Complete Literacy Program, including Reading and b)Writing Workshops c) Illinois, Spanish and WIDA learning Standards. d) SIOP e) Academic Vocabulary f) Interventions for ELLs g) ACCESS, MODEL, LAS and WAPT 6.District’s Improvement Plan and needs of ELLs – The goals in District’s Rising Star are universal, but two of them were chosen for being fundamental in meeting the needs of ELLs. Additionally, ELL/Bilingual Ed has filed an addendum spelling out specific steps taken to meet their instructional needs
