    7th Grade ELD Standards Introduction

    Goal: English learners read, analyze, interpret, and create a variety of literary and
    informational text types. They develop an understanding of how language is a
    complex, dynamic, and social resource for making meaning, as well as how content
    is organized in different text types and across disciplines using text structure,
    language features, and vocabulary depending on purpose and audience. They are
    aware that different languages and variations of English exist, and they recognize
    their home languages and cultures as resources to value in their own right and also
    to draw upon in order to build proficiency in English. English learners contribute
    actively to class and group discussions, asking questions, responding appropriately,
    and providing useful feedback. They demonstrate knowledge of content through
    oral presentations, writing tasks, collaborative conversations, and multimedia. They
    develop proficiency in shifting language use based on task, purpose, audience, and
    text type.
    Critical Principles for Developing Language and Cognition in Academic
    Contexts: While advancing along the continuum of English language development
    levels, English learners at all levels engage in intellectually challenging literacy,
    disciplinary, and disciplinary literacy tasks. They use language in meaningful and
    relevant ways appropriate to grade level, content area, topic, purpose, audience,
    and text type in English language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, and
    the arts. Specifically, they use language to gain and exchange information and
    ideas in three communicative modes (collaborative, interpretive, and productive),
    and they apply knowledge of language to academic tasks via three cross-mode
    language processes (structuring cohesive texts, expanding and enriching ideas, and
    connecting and condensing ideas) using various linguistic resources.

    Part I: Interacting in Meaningful Ways


    A. Collaborative
    1. Exchanging information and ideas with others through oral collaborative
    discussions on a range of social and academic topics
    2. Interacting with others in written English in various communicative forms (print,
    communicative technology and multimedia)
    3. Offering and justifying opinions, negotiating with and persuading others in
    communicative exchanges
    4. Adapting language choices to various contexts (based on task, purpose,
    audience, and text type)
    B. Interpretive
    5. Listening actively to spoken English in a range of social and academic contexts
    6. Reading closely literary and informational texts and viewing multimedia to
    determine how meaning is conveyed explicitly and implicitly through language
    7. Evaluating how well writers and speakers use language to support ideas and
    arguments with details or evidence depending on modality, text type, purpose,
    audience, topic, and content area
    8. Analyzing how writers and speakers use vocabulary and other language
    resources for specific purposes (to explain, persuade, entertain, etc.) depending
    on modality, text type, purpose, audience, topic, and content area
    C. Productive
    9. Expressing information and ideas in formal oral presentations on academic
    topics
    10. Writing literary and informational texts to present, describe, and explain ideas
    and information, using appropriate technology
    11. Justifying own arguments and evaluating others arguments in writing
    12. Selecting and applying varied and precise vocabulary and other language
    resources to effectively convey ideas
    Part II: Learning About How English Works Corresponding CA CCSS for
    ELA/Literacy
    A. Structuring Cohesive Texts
    1. Understanding text structure
    2. Understanding cohesion
    B. Expanding and Enriching Ideas
    3. Using verbs and verb phrases
    4. Using nouns and noun phrases
    5. Modifying to add details
    C. Connecting and Condensing Ideas

    ability as described by each of the three descriptors: emerging, expanding, bridging.
