This guide introduces five key areas of consideration when planning instruction to meet the unique social-emotional, linguistic, cultural, academic, and programming needs of multilingual learners of English who are newcomers. It includes strategies and best practices for language assessment and academic instruction through the proficiency levels, and guidance on how to advocate for effective newcomer education.
