English Language Development During the regular day, differentiated ELD instruction appropriate to the English proficiency level of each EL must be provided by an authorized teacher until the student is reclassified. Districts are to provide ELs with instruction using whatever materials are deemed appropriate that are specifically designed to enable students at each level of English language proficiency to acquire academic English rapidly, efficiently, and effectively. The law does not require a specific number of minutes of ELD for all ELs. Each district has the discretion to determine the amount of time appropriate for students at different English language proficiency levels. The district should have a rationale for the scheduling and amount of ELD students are receiving that bears relation to progress in English (Castañeda v. Pickard, 1981).
