  7. How do they relate to each other? • I have found that the EALR’s are very broad. The GLE’s impose specific aspects of the EALR’s to be covered in curriculum. The GLE’s do not tell you exactly what to teach but more so what they should understand as a student. The categories of EALR’s encompass the GLE’s that each subject and grade level has.
