What is a Lau Plan?
A Lau Plan is named after the landmark Supreme Court case, Lau v. Nichols. The 1974 decision upheld Title VI and required school districts to provide special assistance to LEP (limited English proficient) students who were unable to benefit from an educational program conducted primarily in English. The Plan itself is a written program guide to address the appropriate educational practices for LEP students and includes the following components:
• Identification• Assessment• Placement• Programming• Exit Criteria• Program Evaluation

Equity
• Educators have an obligation to pursue relationships with parents and students even if there are social, economic, linguistic, and cultural challenges. The Lau Plan puts procedures in place to ensure that these obligations are met. • All students must have access to core instruction, but that core instruction needs to be accessible from a language perspective.
• In Maine all schools must have appropriate English Language Development (ELD) services for Levels 1-5.9 overseen by ESL endorsed teacher.

Language Acquisition
![Page 18: 1 Margot Downs Professional Development Specialist Portland Public Schools October 5, 2010 Maine Department of Education ESL/Bilingual Programs Professional](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649ecf5503460f94bdc81f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

General Principles of Language
Language is functional.
Language and culture are interrelated.
Language and culture vary and change.
Language skills develop interdependently across language domains (reading, writing, speaking, listening).
Native language contributes to second language acquisition.
![Page 19: 1 Margot Downs Professional Development Specialist Portland Public Schools October 5, 2010 Maine Department of Education ESL/Bilingual Programs Professional](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649ecf5503460f94bdc81f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Two Levels of Language Proficiency (Cummins)
BICS - Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills - involves using language for social, face-to-face, everyday situations. BICS tends to be very contextualized, providing abundant clues to comprehension (acquired within two years).
CALP - Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency - involves language skills and functions of an academic or cognitive nature. This is the language needed to accomplish academic tasks (acquired between 4 - 7 years).
CALP is highly transferable from one language to another. If you have have academic proficiency in one language, you can more easily acquire the matching language for the concept and ideas in a second language.
![Page 20: 1 Margot Downs Professional Development Specialist Portland Public Schools October 5, 2010 Maine Department of Education ESL/Bilingual Programs Professional](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649ecf5503460f94bdc81f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
Important Concepts
L2 Acquisition is not a linear process. ELLs will progress at different rates and times.
Similar ELP levels among ELLs do not connote similar linguistic background profiles. As a result, instructional emphases will vary.
Delivery of instruction needs to be mediated individually to ELLs according to their individual linguistic and cultural backgrounds (Comprehensible Input).
Consistent embedding of targeted language is required through consistent task-based, cognitively demanding activities (Building Student Autonomy)(SIOP Model).
Collaboration is a must between the ELL support teacher and the content teacher for strategic delivery of instruction with a differentiated language focus and grade-level delivery of content.

There was no rain for a long time. Farmers had planted crops like wheat and corn, but because it did not rain, and all the crops died. Because there were no crops, there was nothing for people to eat, and they became hungry and died. Many people were children and old people.
The extended drought caused the crops to fail, resulting in a widespread famine and many deaths, including the children and elderly.

What is “Academic Language”?
Relating events to someone who was not present
Making comparisons between alternatives and justifying a choice
Knowing different forms and inflections of words and their appropriate use
Using content-specific vocabulary and modes of expression in different academic disciplines such as mathematics and social studies in reading, writing, speaking and listening.

Using appropriate terminology is integral to the concepts being learned. Understanding concepts isn’t simply a question of learning new vocabulary. Academic literacy means being able to express more concisely and precisely the complex ideas and concepts that are embedded in the context of a subject. (Gibbons 2009)
![Page 28: 1 Margot Downs Professional Development Specialist Portland Public Schools October 5, 2010 Maine Department of Education ESL/Bilingual Programs Professional](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649ecf5503460f94bdc81f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Academic language proficiency refers to the abilities to construct meaning from oral and written language, relate complex ideas and information, recognize features of different genres, and use various linguistic strategies to communicate.
Dutro &Moran (2003)

“ELLs need academic content instruction, just as all students do; although language development is crucial, it must be in addition to - not instead of - instruction designed to promote content knowledge.”

Elements of Model Performance IndicatorsThe Model Performance Indicator (MPI) consists of three elements:
The language function describes how students use language to demonstrate their proficiency
The example topic specifies the context for language instruction, derived from state content standards
The support includes instructional strategies or tools used to assist students in accessing content necessary for communication; can be sensory, graphic, or interactive
