    Illinois mandates services for English learners, which for Transitional Bilingual Education (TBE) programs,

    includes native language instruction in language arts, math, science, and social studies. For ELs eligible for

    full-time TBE, district guidance recommends 80% instruction in the native language in preschool and 80-50% of

    instruction in the native language for K-2 students (instruction in dual language classrooms follows a more

    detailed language allocation for each grade level and content area). The language of assessment should

    reflect and align to the language of instruction in order to more accurately assess content knowledge without

    language proficiency being a significant barrier. When the TBE program is in Spanish, schools have a variety of

    assessments available in both English and Spanish and it is important to select Spanish assessments to

    determine if the students are acquiring the necessary concepts and skills. Adherence to this will provide more

    accurate results on literacy assessments as the language barrier will be reduced.

    Full-time Spanish TBE eligible students

    receiving instruction in Spanish should be

    assessed in the language of instruction

    (Spanish).

    Students eligible for Part-time TBE (in general,

    scoring 3.5 or higher on the literacy language

    proficiency when assessed using ACCESS or

    a screener or 4.0 in oral language proficiency

    for Kindergarten ELs on the EL Screener*),

    could be tested in both languages, depending

    on the proportion of instruction in English and

    Spanish.

    Only Part-time TBE eligible students, who

    receive the majority of their instruction in

    English, should be tested exclusively in

    English.

    Results should be interpreted with

    caution as students are still

    developing their English language.

    Students with the score of 3.5 or higher on

    the literacy language proficiency or 4.0 in oral

    language proficiency for when screened

    during the first semester of Kindergarten on

    the EL Screener may participate with caution.

    Results should be interpreted with

    considerations of other factors such

    as English language proficiency and

    program year.

    Results for assessments in English for

    ELs with lower proficiencies than

    those listed above would not be

    reliable (more indicative of English

    proficiency than content knowledge),

    so testing in English is not

    recommended

    • Please note: oral language proficiency level is applicable to Kindergartners only when screened in the 1st semester*

    Please note that even though the percentage of instruction in English and Spanish might shift slightly

    throughout the academic year, it is crucial to assess in the same language at different times during the same

    school year, so that educators can see growth and not have test scores that could reflect the different

    language of assessment rather than true measure of growth.
