==labeling==
 +
* A process intended to categorize students so that they receive the support they need in school, but that can become derogatory or negative because the labels (e.g., [[#limited English proficient (LEP)|limited English proficient [LEP]]], not English proficient [NEP]) indicate a student’s weakness rather than his or her strength. This text uses the term [[Caslon_Language_Education_Wikimedia_(E)#English language learner(s) (ELLs)|English language learner (ELL)]] because that is the terminology used in federal and state mandates, although we prefer inclusive language such as [[Caslon_Language_Education_Wikimedia_(E)#emergent bilingual(s)|emergent bilingual]].

==language acquisition==
 +
* A commonly used term when considering instructional issues for English language learners (ELLs). Definitions vary based on four broad research traditions (foreign language education, child language research, sociocultural theory, and psycholinguistics) that have informed research and practice on second language acquisition. From 2.3 (Dixon) in [https://www.caslonpublishing.com/titles/19/common-core-english-language-learners-and-equity/ <i>Common Core, Bilingual and English Language Learners</i>] edited by [https://www.caslonpublishing.com/titles/19/common-core-english-language-learners-and-equity/authors/ Guadalupe Valdés, Kate Menken, and Mariana Castro]
 +
 +
* The process of acquiring language that has three conceptualizations: (1) individual cognitive (the individual learner must figure out the rules of the linguistic system from the language to which he or she is exposed), (2) social (language learning is not a strictly individual cognitive act, rather, it is presumed to be situated and social, with ELLs learning the local norms of social usage primarily through interaction with others, and (3) emergent or usage-based (combines cognitive and social views of learning; language development is seen as an adaptive, dynamic process). From 2.4 (Larsen-Freeman) in [https://www.caslonpublishing.com/titles/19/common-core-english-language-learners-and-equity/ <i>Common Core, Bilingual and English Language Learners</i>] edited by [https://www.caslonpublishing.com/titles/19/common-core-english-language-learners-and-equity/authors/ Guadalupe Valdés, Kate Menken, and Mariana Castro]

labeling

language acquisition

  • The process of acquiring language that has three conceptualizations: (1) individual cognitive (the individual learner must figure out the rules of the linguistic system from the language to which he or she is exposed), (2) social (language learning is not a strictly individual cognitive act, rather, it is presumed to be situated and social, with ELLs learning the local norms of social usage primarily through interaction with others, and (3) emergent or usage-based (combines cognitive and social views of learning; language development is seen as an adaptive, dynamic process).

language development

language development standards

  • The blueprints for guiding curriculum, instruction, and assessment with respect to language development in classroom contexts, in particular for English language learners (ELLs). They should provide models of language performance in a variety of instructional contexts and illustrate language features/functions.

language dominance

language experience approach (LEA)

  • A method of writing instruction in which the teacher puts students’ oral language into print, enabling students to create a comprehensible text in their own words directly related to a shared experience. Teaching for Biliteracy by Karen Beeman and Cheryl Urow

language features/functions

language for academic purposes

language ideology

language immersion program

  • A program for students in preschool through later grades that is designed to immerse them in a new language. U.S. language immersion programs are run as private schools or enrichment programs to help monolingual English speakers become fluent in a new language while attaining educational goals. Young Dual Language Learners by Karen N. Nemeth

language loss

language majority

language minority

  • A term applied to a student who speaks a minority language or a language other than the dominant societal language. In the United States, this refers to a speaker of any language or variety of language other than standard English (e.g., black vernacular English or Ebonics, Spanish). English Language Learners at School, second edition by Else Hamayan and Rebecca Field
  • Describes students who speak a language other than the dominant societal language (Freeman, 2004). In the United States, language minority students speak a language other than English at home. Some language minority students, especially those who are born in the United States, are also English-proficient speakers. Others within this group speak the home language and have various English language proficiency levels. In other words, all ELLs are language minority students but all language minority students are not ELLs.
