Instructions
After reviewing this week’s resources and researching the programs provided in this week’s introduction, select a program of study that can be utilized with a student with a non-English language background. Base your decision on learner characteristics, current levels of primary language proficiency, and assessment information.

Be sure to address the following:
Explain how L1 and L2 development will be addressed and how results will be evaluated.
Explain how you decided on the program that is appropriate for the student, including information on how the program should be implemented. Provide an implementation timeline and determine any needed materials.
Provide directions on how to obtain information on the specific program.
Recommend next steps based on the results of the evaluation of student progress.

Programs for students with a non-English language background are usually selected by individual state departments of education and evaluated for success on a local level. The trend toward inclusive practices and tiered programs in general education has impacted English language programs as well. Although inclusive practices are often successful for many students, specific programs have been designed to scaffold language development. Many school districts are moving toward more inclusive services and multilingual education for all students.
Listed below are some of these programs. Research these as you prepare for this week’s assignment.
English as a Second Language Pull-out Programs – inclusion plus separate instruction for a few hours a week
Bilingual Transition Programs – instruction in L1 part of the day
Two-Way Immersion Programs – content taught in both languages
SDAIE – Specially Designed Academic Instruction in English – delivered in English
Sheltered Instruction Programs – instruction adapted to proficiency level
English Immersion Programs – student can use native language but taught in English
