EL students spend the majority of their day in their classrooms with English-speaking peers. EL students are provided services through co-teaching of core content subject areas. The EL teacher works closely with the classroom teacher to provide the most appropriate services and to support the academic content being taught within a language framework. This is done by reinforcing academic vocabulary, using strategies specific to EL instruction, and by modifying and adapting materials, instruction, and curriculum based on individual student language needs.
