Title: Road Map to Create a French-English Dual-Language Program in New York City
Body: From http://frenchlanguage.frenchculture.org As the fourth most spoken language in New York City, with 116,000 speakers citywide, French is deeply entwined in New York's linguistic fabric. New York City is at the center of this bilingual revolution, with eight public schools offering dual language programs from grade K-6, and plans to extend those programs all the way to college. These programs were largely created as a result of the efforts of parents who put up websites, canvassed the neighborhood and worked with Principals to get the project off the ground. If you are considering the creation of a dual-language program in a NYC school, an available Road Map can become a very useful tool to organize your next steps. The Road Map was prepared by the Downtown/Midtown parent groups and is available for download from http://api.ning.com/files/uGug8jV2T3g0iF3pHeV2SfsfvpWCQZvGLW0W-BYVzklE1rmlyGu50ZJaTNX5Bq*C3kYjSE2IJp*zD20k2mEArN*RtqnGfurX/RoadMaptoCreateaFrenchDLP.pdf

Title: ELL Assessment Groups Move Ahead on Standards, New Tests
Body: From http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/learning-the-language/2013/06/ell_assessment_groups_move_ahe.html ELL Assessment Groups Move Ahead on Standards, New Tests By Lesli A. Maxwell June 20, 2013 For teachers who work with English-language learners, there's more to grasp than the new common standards in English/language arts and mathematics and the coming assessments that go with them. Also coming are new and revamped English-language-proficiency standards connected to the language demands in the common core, and soon, a new set of assessments to measure the progress that ELLs make toward becoming proficient in their new language. It's a major shakeup that will play out over the next few years. So it helps to have those who are most intimately involved with these new standards/testing efforts take the time to step out of the weeds of their work and explain—in a big picture way—what they are doing. Thanks to the Washington-based Alliance for Education, some of the top experts working on ELP standards and tests appeared in a webinar on June 19th to explain the work they are doing and how it will connect to teachers and students in the classroom. Read on for highlights from the webinar: http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/learning-the-language/2013/06/ell_assessment_groups_move_ahe.html

Title: Two Websites Offer News Articles at Different Levels of Difficulty
Body: Here are two different websites that offer the same news articles at different levels of difficulty: --- The Newsela website provides different versions of the same news articles at different levels of text complexity. It includes comprehension quizzes for each article. The Newsela website is available at http://newsela.com Read reviews of this resource at http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/2013/06/18/newsela-provides-leveled-news-articles-quizzes and at http://cristinaskybox.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-relevance-of-reading-skills.html --- The News in Levels website writes summaries of the same news articles at three different levels of difficulty. Students can stick with one level that matches their proficiency, or they can read increasingly more difficult versions of the same article as they become more familiar with its content.
