Notes: Home Language Survey: asks what languages are used at home by parents, student, other parent information - federally required

Parent Notification: letter to parents telling where student is in proficiency and what programs are available to help - federally required

Language Proficiency Levels: simplified chart to show what proficiency level the student is currently at in different areas, what skills the student has and where they need to progress. More of a tool than an assessment. Divided by grade levels.

WELPA: Assessment to show level the student is at, opportunity to show what they can do in different areas (listening, speaking, reading, writing), eligibility for programs, includes students whose parents waived them from services. Portions are one on one so very time consuming and need personnel.

ELD Standards: Separates by proficiency level and grade level in different areas and gives the standards of where a student should be/ what they can do for that proficiency and grade level. Can be used to see the standards of the next higher level to provide goals of where students should eventually be. Use to design your instruction, use as informal assessment.
