Supporting Emergent Bilingual Students in Texas

The English language learner (ELL) Instructional Accommodations Checklist allows the Language Proficiency Assessment Committee (LPAC) to document the identified purposeful linguistic accommodations for teachers to routinely implement in classroom instruction for ELL students throughout the course of the school year.  The document also includes a designated area for the LPAC to capture instructional recommendations and subjective teacher information to support instruction at the Beginning of the Year (BOY), Middle of the Year (MOY) and End of Year (EOY).
