I look forward to working with your child in the ELD classroom this year.  Students in the ELD classroom will be focusing on building their English skills in the areas of Reading, Listening, Speaking, Vocabulary, Writing, and Grammar.  The lessons are being developed using the Arizona State English Language Proficiency (ELP) Standards. You may view these standards at http://www.azed.gov/oelas/elps/ which are aligned to the English Language Arts (ELA) Standards.

Students will be expected to come prepared to learn each day and participate in all class activities.  I will be sending home or emailing a copy of our class expectations within the next week.  If you have any questions or concerns regarding your child’s progress, please contact me at the phone number or email listed above.
