Course Description
The English Language Development series is designed to assist second language learners with the transition to online learning. Divided into three major strands - Reading, Writing, and Oral Communication - the program allows students the ability to focus solely on their areas of need. All students identified to need English language development will take a pre-test to determine the strand and level in which to be placed. Students are commonly placed in different strands and different levels according to their needs for growth; for example, a student may be placed into Reading Level 2 and Writing Level 3. Because each level is thematically based, students will work with the English language while studying topics as diverse as international music, fine arts, green initiatives, and world cultures.

Each strand includes diverse topics such as global current events, endangered species of the earth, the power of music to transform culture, the dangers of overpopulation and the importance of protecting the environment.
