This course is designed for English Learners (ELs) at English Language Proficiency (ELP) levels 1–4 and aligns with the WIDA English Language Development Standards and Virginia Standards of Learning. The curriculum accelerates English language development by strengthening both expressive (writing, speaking, representing) and interpretive (listening, reading, viewing) communication skills. Students will engage in performance-based tasks, explore diverse literary genres, and analyze multimedia texts to build the language needed for academic success and social interaction. Instruction emphasizes meaningful use of language to understand and convey ideas, concepts, and information across content areas.
