early-exit transitional bilingual education program
- A subtractive transitional bilingual education model that provides native language instruction for one to three years while students acquire sufficient English language proficiency to function in classrooms where English is the sole instructional medium. Biliteracy from the Start by Kathy Escamilla, Susan Hopewell, Sandra Butvilofsky, Wendy Sparrow, Lucinda Soltero-González, Olivia Ruiz-Figueroa, and Manuel Escamilla
- Refers to transitional bilingual education programs where students are transferred to monolingual instruction as soon as they are deemed fluent in English. The Translanguaging Classroom by Ofelia García,Susana Ibarra Johnson, and Kate Seltzer
- A form of transitional bilingual education that serves English language learners from a common language background with the goals of full development in L2 (English), at the sacrifice of their L1, with expectations for grade-level achievement and assimilation into L2. Assessment and Accountability in Language Education Programs by Margo Gottlieb and Diep Nguyen
early intervention services
- Phrase used in the 2004 reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEIA) that refers to addressing the needs of students and determining the need and eligibility for services on the basis of prereferral interventions. This service model stands in contrast to discrepancy models used to place students into special education. Special Education Considerations for English Language Learners by Else Hamayan, Barbara Marler, Cristina Sánchez-López, and Jack Damico
echo reading
- The teacher reads a short segment of text fluently and the students reread it using expression and intonation. Biliteracy from the Start by Kathy Escamilla, Susan Hopewell, Sandra Butvilofsky, Wendy Sparrow, Lucinda Soltero-González, Olivia Ruiz-Figueroa, and Manuel Escamilla
Education for All Handicapped Children Act, 1975 (P.L. 94-142)
- The law had four purposes: “(1) to assure that all children with disabilities have available to them. . . . a free appropriate public education that emphasizes special education and related services designed to meet their unique needs; (2) to assure that the rights of children with disabilities and their parents. . . . are protected; (3) to assist states and localities to provide for the education of all children with disabilities; and (4) to assess and assure the effectiveness of efforts to educate all children with disabilities.”
educational segregation
- Involves the clustering of students based on a criterion (race, language proficiency) at the program or school level. Foundations for Multilingualism in Education by Ester de Jong
effective school studies
- Studies that try to identify the common features that characterize schools identified as effective for diverse learners. Foundations for Multilingualism in Education by Ester de Jong
elective bilingualism
- Acquisition context in which becoming bilingual is a choice rather than a necessity (also voluntary bilingualism). Foundations for Multilingualism in Education by Ester de Jong
Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)
- Federal law passed in 1965 to regulate funds to states and districts for elementary and secondary schools. Foundations for Multilingualism in Education by Ester de Jong
- The main body of federal education policy and law and source for education funding to state and local education agencies. Passed in 1965 and binding on all states and entities that accept federal education funding. Foundations for Teaching English Language Learners, second edition by Wayne E. Wright
ELL program
- Tradtionally this term has been used to refer narrowly to specially designed English as a second language programs, as well as bilingual education programs. In this book, we use the terms “ELL program” or “program for ELLs” more broadly to refer to all aspects of the educational programming for ELLs at school, including the time ELLs spend in general education classes. This broader use of the term "ELL program" reflects an assumption of shared responsibility for ELL education among all educators who have ELLs in their classes and schools, not only the ESL and bilingual education specialists. English Language Learners at School by Else Hamayan and Rebecca Field
English Language Proficiency Assessment for the 21st Century (ELPA21)
- A consortium of states committed to supporting educators, member states, and members of the public as they adopt and implement the English Language Proficiency Standards and college- and career-ready standards. The consortium is developing an assessment system based on the English Language Proficiency Standards that will inform instruction so that all English language learners (ELLs) leave high school prepared for college and career success. www.elpa21.org
emerging bilingual
- Emerging bilinguals are defined as children (ages 3 and above) who speak a native language other than English and who are in the dynamic process of developing bilingual and biliterate competencies (in this case in English and Spanish), with the support of their communities (e.g., parents, school, neighbors). This term is used interchangably with the term emergent bilinguals. Biliteracy from the Start by Kathy Escamilla, Susan Hopewell, Sandra Butvilofsky, Wendy Sparrow, Lucinda Soltero-González, Olivia Ruiz-Figueroa, and Manuel Escamilla
emergent bilingual(s)
- Student who speaks a language other than English at home and has been identified as becoming English proficient. In some contexts, this term is used in preference to English language learner. Teaching for Biliteracy by Karen Beeman and Cheryl Urow
- Refers to those students whose bilingualism is emerging. In this book it is used to refer mostly to students who are developing English, but can also be used to refer to students developing the language other than English. The Translanguaging Classroom by Ofelia García,Susana Ibarra Johnson, and Kate Seltzer
- Students who are becoming proficient in a second or additional language. All English language learners are emergent bilinguals, regardless of whether they are in a bilingual education or English-medium program. The term “emergent bilingual” makes visible all of the languages in the learners’ linguistic repertoire, highlighting the developmental nature of and potential for additive bilingualism. English Language Learners at School by Else Hamayan and Rebecca Field
- A term used by some states and programs to indicate young students who are becoming proficient in a second or additional language. It may be used instead of English learner. Young Dual Language Learners by Karen N. Nemeth
- An alternative label for ELLs that draws attention to the other language or languages in the learners’ linguistic repertoires, situates these learners in a continuum of bilingual development, and emphasizes that a fundamental goal of programs for these learners should be to help them attain high levels of proficiency in both their home language and English. Foundations for Teaching English Language Learners, second edition by Wayne E. Wright
English as an additional language (EAL) students
- Term (used particularly in the United Kingdom) for students who speak languages other than English at home (see also emergent bilinguals, bilingual learners, limited English proficient). Foundations for Multilingualism in Education by Ester de Jong
English as a second language (ESL)
- A program for English language learners in which English is the medium and goal of instruction. Students are generally placed in classes with students of the same level of academic English proficiency (beginner, intermediate, and advanced) and are given specially tailored instruction that moves them toward full proficiency in English in the areas of reading, writing, speaking, and listening (also referred to as ENL (English as a new language) and ELD (English language development)). Teaching Adolescent English Language Learners by Nancy Cloud, Judah Lakin, Erin Leininger, Laura Maxwell
- Programs of instruction for emergent bilinguals where only English is used. The Translanguaging Classroom by Ofelia García,Susana Ibarra Johnson, and Kate Seltzer
- A form of language education that serves English language learners from multiple language backgrounds with the goal of full development in L2 (English). Assessment and Accountability in Language Education Programs by Margo Gottlieb and Diep Nguyen
- Developmentally appropriate English language instruction tailored to English language learners’ level of English proficiency; also known as English language development (ELD). While English language learners receive ESL/ELD instruction, they also receive content instruction from other sources (e.g., a bilingual program, mainstream classes). There are different types of ESL classes, including pull-out, push-in, or self-contained. Sheltered instruction programs are another type of English-only program associated with the term ESL. English Language Learners at School by Else Hamayan and Rebecca Field
