Integrated & Designated ELD
Both/And
Integrated ELD:
All teachers with ELs in their classrooms use the CA ELD Standards
in tandem with
the focal CA CCSS for ELA/Literacy and other content standards.
Designated ELD:
A protected time during the regular school day when teachers use the CA ELD Standards as the focal standards in ways that build
into and from content instruction
in order to develop critical language ELs need for content learning in English.
