This engagement includes one 3-hour, in-person professional learning session focused on ELSF’s ELA/ELD Curriculum Adoption Toolkit for California. The session will prepare district teams to lead MLL-centered adoptions as they respond to the state’s newly adopted ELA/ELD materials list. It will move through the toolkit’s five phases, from landscape analysis to implementation planning, and will use the Benchmarks of Quality and Materials Must-Haves to ground what districts should require of any program they consider.

Recommended participants: teams of 2–4 per district, including curriculum and instruction leaders, English learner/multilingual program leaders, and a teacher leader or site administrator likely to serve on the adoption committee.
