Online English Language Development (ELD Level 2)

Module 4: ELD Level 2 Language Function and Construction

The ELD 2 Language Function and Construction module focuses on teaching critical language resources (structure, organization, and meaning) that help students become better readers, writers, and speakers. With this knowledge, multilingual learners will be equipped to communicate more effectively, with improved clarity and cohesion.

This module also helps English learners unpack meaning in texts they encounter across academic disciplines and make informed choices about how to use language appropriately—based on discipline, topic, purpose, audience, and task—when producing written texts and oral presentations.
