Integrating the CA ELD Standards Into K-12 English Language Arts/Literacy

GRADE 4

Integrating the CA ELD Standards into K -12 English Language/Literacy

Purpose of the ELD Standards

The CA English Language Development (ELD) Standards describe the key knowledge, skills, and abilities that students who are learning English as a new language need in order to access, engage with, and achieve in grade‐level academic content. The CA ELD Standards are designed to provide challenging content in ELD in order for English learners to gain proficiency in a range of rigorous academic English language skills. The CA ELD Standards are not intended to replace the California Common Core State Standards for ELA & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects (CA CCSS for ELA/Literacy). Instead, the CA ELD Standards amplify the language, knowledge, skills, and abilities of the CA CCSS for ELA/Literacy standards, which are essential in order for ELs to succeed in school while they are developing English.

Intended Use of the ELD Standards

The CA ELD Standards correspond with the CA CCSS for ELA/Literacy and are designed to apply to English language and literacy skills across all academic content areas in addition to classes specifically designed for ELD. With appropriate instructional support from their teachers, provided within appropriately designed school programs, English learners at all levels of English language proficiency are able to engage in intellectually challenging, content and language-rich instruction so that they can develop the advanced levels of English that are necessary for college and career readiness and meaningful engagement with civic life.

The CA ELD Standards amplify the language, knowledge, skills, and abilities of the CA CCSS for ELA/Literacy standards, which are essential in order for ELs to

succeed in school while they are developing English.

To achieve these goals and to fully include English learners in content instruction (e.g., English langauge arts, science, history, mathematics) all teachers of English learners need to implement the CA ELD Standards in tandem with all content standards.

This resource specifies the correspondences between the CA ELD Standards and the CCSS for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Science, and Technical Subjects. It can be used by content-area teachers to recognize the opportunities for language development within content instruction to help English learners foster the language needed to engage in discipline-specific practices and to express content knowledge during integrated ELD. Such a multilayered application of the CA ELD Standards requires deep collaboration among educators, support for teachers, and most importantly, a sustained focus on the strengths and needs of individual Englsih learners as well as a persistent belief that all English learners can achieve the highest levels of academic and linguistic excellence.

Integrated and Designated ELD

When implementing the CA ELD Standards, the focus of instruction determines the standards’ role. For example, the CA ELD Standards serve as the focal standards in settings specifically designed for English language development, such as designated ELD instruction when ELs are grouped by English language proficiency level. Additionally, the CA ELD Standards are designed and intended to be used in tandem with other academic content standards to support English learners in mainstream academic content classrooms during integrated ELD.

Some Reminders About the Organization of the CA ELD Standards

Part I and Part II of the CA ELD Standards are intentionally presented separately only to call attention to the need for both a focus on meaning and interaction and a focus on building knowledge about the linguistic features and structure of English. Both parts of the standards should be interpreted as complementary and interrrelated dimensions of what must be addressed in a robust instructional program for English learners. Accordingly, the standards in Part II should not be used in isolation; instead, they should be used in the context of fostering intellectually and discourse-rich, meaningful interactions outlined in Part I. The complete CA ELD Standards can be accessed here https://www.cde.ca.gov/sp/el/er/documents/eldstndspublication14.pdf.

For an introduction to the CA ELD Standards, refer to the Professional Learning Modules below.

Bridging - a. Describe ideas, phenomena (e.g., pollination), and text elements (main idea, character traits, event sequence, and the like) in detail based on close reading of a variety of grade-level texts, with light support.

b. Use knowledge of morphology (e.g., affixes, roots, and base words) and linguistic context to determine the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning words on familiar and new topics.

Emerging - Describe the specific language writers or speakers use to present or support an idea (e.g., the specific vocabulary or phrasing used to provide evidence), with prompting and substantial support

PII.1 - Understanding text structure

CA CCSS forELA Standard

Emerging - Apply understanding of how different text types are organized to express ideas (e.g., how a narrative is organized sequentially) to comprehending texts and writing basic texts.

Expanding - Apply increasing understanding of how different text types are organized to express ideas (e.g., how a narrative is organized sequentially with predictable stages versus how an explanation is organized around ideas) to comprehending texts and writing texts with increasing cohesion.

Bridging - Apply understanding of how different text types are organized to express ideas (e.g., how a narrative is organized sequentially with predictable stages versus how opinions/arguments are structured logically, grouping related ideas) to comprehending texts and writing cohesive texts.

Expanding - a. Describe ideas, phenomena (e.g., animal migration), and text elements (main idea, central message, and the like) in greater detail based on close reading of a variety of grade-level texts, with moderate support.

b. Use knowledge of morphology (e.g., affixes, roots, and base words), linguistic context, and reference materials to determine the meaning of unknown words on familiar topics.

Bridging - a. Describe ideas, phenomena (e.g., pollination), and text elements (main idea, character traits, event sequence, and the like) in detail based on close reading of a variety of grade-level texts, with light support.

PII.6 - Connecting ideas PII.7 - Condensing ideasBridging - Condense clauses in a variety of ways (e.g., through various types of embedded clauses and other ways of condensing as in, There was a Gold Rush. It began in the 1850s. It brought a lot of people to California. → The Gold Rush that began in the 1850s brought a lot of people to California) to create precise and detailed sentences.

Emerging - Combine clauses in a few basic ways to make connections between and join ideas in sentences (e.g., creating compound sentences using coordinate conjunctions, such as and, but, so).

Emerging - Condense clauses in simple ways (e.g., through simple embedded clauses, as in, The woman is a doctor. She helps children. → The woman is a doctor who helps children) to create precise and detailed sentences.

Expanding - Condense clauses in an increasing variety of ways (e.g., through a growing number of embedded clauses and other condensing, as in, The dog ate quickly. The dog choked. → The dog ate so quickly that it choked) to create precise and detailed sentences.

Expanding - Combine clauses in an increasing variety of ways (e.g., creating complex sentences using familiar subordinate conjunctions) to make connections between and join ideas in sentences, for example, to express cause/effect (e.g., The deer ran because the mountain lion came) or to make a concession (e.g., She studied all night even though she wasn’t feeling well).
