What do CCSS mean for ELLs? • “It is unreasonable to expect ELLS to perform comparably to their native English-speaking peers in their initial years of schooling …The problem enters when students are not pushed to go beyond this stage over time, are presumed to be at an elementary level, or are misdiagnosed as having educational disabilities by teachers unfamiliar with the needs of ELLs”. Joseph Laturnau, 2001
