Questions: Imagine it is the beginning of a new year and your administration has shared a schoolwide goal related to ensuring proper advocacy and supports for ELLs. What is an example of a resource document (i.e., pamphlet, brochure) to give to new teachers at the beginning of a school year, addressing the following:

1. An introduction that includes the demographic and home language composition of the PK-12 ELL population in Arizona.

3. Discuss the factors influencing English language acquisition for special populations of ELLs (refugee, migrant, immigrant, and Native American), including how they relate to long-term English learners (LTEL), recently arrived English learners (RAEL) or students with interrupted formal education (SIFE).
4. Describe other services students may qualify for (exceptional student services/special education, gifted and talented), in addition to being identified as an ELL.
5. Explain parents'/guardians' rights in regard to ELL services (i.e., program placement, assessment).
