English Language Development • Grades K–5
Unlock ELD: Powered by Kiddom
Dedicated English language development that helps multilingual learners (MLLs) build academic vocabulary, strengthen language skills, and participate confidently in grade-level literacy.
Language development connected to grade-level learning
Unlock ELD provides 30 minutes of daily designated ELD instruction that builds academic language and connects to EL Education’s 2025 K–5 Module Lessons.
Academic vocabulary and language
Develop the words, phrases, sentence structures, and language features students need to communicate complex ideas.
Grade-level connections
Reinforce the language students need for core ELA discussions, writing, assessments, and performance tasks.
Differentiation for MLLs
Provide targeted scaffolds, visuals, and practice across English language proficiency levels.
Speaking and listening
Strengthen oral language through structured conversations, collaboration, and repeated practice.
One connected approach to literacy and language
Core Module Lessons build literacy through reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Unlock ELD extends that learning with dedicated language instruction connected to the same grade-level content.
Unlock ELD
Students revisit the same texts and topics to develop academic language and prepare for grade-level discussions, writing, and assessments.
Build vocabulary and discover how language works
Students become “language detectives,” using predictable routines to notice, discuss, practice, and apply academic language.
Formative assessment that guides what comes next
Check Language helps teachers gather evidence of language development through checklists, student reflection, exit tickets, and collaborative conversations.
Monitor
Use teacher checklists and conversation rubrics to track language development.
Differentiate
Use evidence to adjust instruction, form flexible groups, and plan Pick Your Path activities and Flex Days.
Reflect
Help students assess their progress and set language goals.
