Preparing to meet ELLs' needs
TELPAS, Accelerated Language Proficiency Plans
Ask your campus LPAC Coordinator about last Spring's TELPAS results, so you know what the current proficiency levels are for your ELLs. To move them forward we'll want to start where they are.
If you teach 3rd-12th graders, you'll have the opportunity to plan for the special language needs of any Beginner or Intermediate level language learners
