Districts can opt-in to research-backed preparation activities called Primers, which prepare ELs with mathematical academic vocabulary. Other supports, like confidence questions, give students opportunities for written practice explaining and arguing math ideas.
“The English Learner Program at the Idaho State Department of Education is excited to provide state-wide licenses to LEAs across Idaho for all English learner students. Our goal in partnering with Ellevation is to support English learners in developing their language of mathematics to support their academic achievement and increase confidence in the content classrooms. Ellevation will provide teachers with additional pre-teaching and intervention support for their multilingual learners. While historically we have focused on ELA supports, we are eager to be able to provide additional support for teachers and students in math,” said Maria Puga, English Learner Program Coordinator.
The partnership will save teachers time and allow district leaders to seamlessly monitor student progress so that educators can focus on what they love – helping their English learners thrive.
“At Ellevation, our mission is to help English Learners achieve their highest aspirations. This new partnership with the Idaho State Department of Education will equip educators all across the state with the tools they need to support their students,” said Teddy Rice, President & Co-Founder of Ellevation.
