What’s New in the 2012 Amplification of the ELD Standards?


In my last post, I pointed out the elements of the 2012 Amplification that are remaining the same.  If you haven’t done so already, check out that post and label the pages I mentioned.  It will make it easier to find what I am mentioning in this post.  Speaking of which, let’s take a look at some of what has changed or been made explicit in the 2012 amplification of the ELD Standards.

What’s the Same in the 2012 Amplification of the ELD Standards?

Have you heard?  The 2012 amplification of the English language development standards is now available.  I downloaded a copy for myself and took some time to compare and contrast the 2007 edition and the new 2012 amplification of the ELD Standards.  But first things first, find some small sticky notes or tabs and flag the following pages.  These are the ones you’ll be referencing the most as you begin to use this document.
