8. ELLs are a homogenous group! Schools across the country offer a range of interventions! Agree!!! Bilingual classes, sheltered programs, ESL pullout instruction, RTI, etc.! Agree or Disagree Disagree!!! Most have Spanish as their first language, but the rest speak any of 40 other languages (NCELA 2007). 1 Disagree!!! Most ELL students were born in the United States, but close to half of ELLs in grades six through twelve are foreign born (Capps et al, 2005). 1 All ELLs are foreign born! Agree!!! By 2015, it is projected that 30% of the school-aged population in the U.S. will be ELLs. ELLs represent one of the fastest-growing groups among the school-aged population. Estimates place the ELL population at over 9.9 million students, with roughly 5.5 million students classified as LEP. In the last two decades, the population of ELLs has grown 169% while the general school population has grown only 12%. 2 ELL Populations are Growing
