The curriculum must be equivalent to that provided to fluent English proficient and native speakers of English. Integrated ELD is instruction in which teachers of English learners use the state-adopted ELD standards in tandem with the state-adopted academic content standards to ensure that all English learners have full access to grade level curricula in all content areas. Designated ELD is instruction provided during a time set aside in the regular school day for focused instruction on the state-adopted ELD standards to assist English learners to develop critical English language skills necessary for academic content learning in English. Instruction and services in this course section must be provided by a teacher with an appropriate English learner (EL) authorization.
Education Service English Learners	2	Designated ELD Instruction Only	This course section provides designated ELD instruction. Designated ELD is instruction provided during a time set aside in the regular school day for focused instruction on the state-adopted ELD standards to assist English learners to develop critical English language skills necessary for academic content learning in English.
