         <description><![CDATA[<div>After some researches I have found that Southern California is one of the most linguistically diverse areas of its size in the country.</div><div>At least one in five students in San Diego County schools speaks a language other than English.</div><div><br></div><div>These are the 10 top languages spoken in San Diego and the number of speakers of each language:</div><div>Spanish (89.972), Arabic (3.077), Filipino (2.901), Vietnamese (2.495), Mandarin (1.039), Korean (797), Russian (506), Cantonese (298), Hmong (90), Punjabi (36).</div><div><br></div><div>The percentage of San Diego Unified English Learners students who were deemed fluent, or English proficient, was 17 percent in the 2016-2017 school year, up from 11 percent two years before, according with to district data. (sandiegouniontribune.com)</div><div><br></div><div>After reading all these information we can see how every year the number of Dual Language Learners are increasing.</div><div><br></div><div>I couldn't find much from California Department of Education web site. It looks like it has a lot of information but more related to California statistics in general, or at least I couldn't find easily by searching in that website.</div><div>I have found more information about Dual Language learners in websites like Cde.ca.go, voiceofsandiego.org, Sandiegounified.org and ed-data.org.<br><br>there is an interesting article about how San Diego County needs to improve their English-Learner Program.</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div> As I searched for DLLs in the Sacramento county, I noticed that its a challenge to located the information I need.  I found studies and/or effective ways in supporting ELs, but hardly anything on DLLs. <br>       Based on the California Department of Education (CDE), cde.ca.gov, there were at least 1.196 million ELs in California public schools. CDE have at least three programs to help close the achievement gab between ELs and native English speaking students. These three programs are: Dual-Language Immersion Program, Transitional or Developmental Program, and Structured English Immersion. These are the top ten languages spoken in the state:<br>Spanish | 81.56%<br>Vietnamese | 2.21%<br>Mandarin (Putonghua) | 1.87%<br>Arabic | 1.53%<br>Filipino (Pilipino or Tagalog) | 1.25%<br>Cantonese | 1.21%<br>Korean | 0.81%<br>Punjabi | 0.77%<br>Russian | 0.76%<br>Hmong | 0.69%<br>        <br>      I wanted to narrow down my search more and was able to find Sacramento county data for ELs. Under California Department of Education Data Reporting office, <a href="https://data1.cde.ca.gov/dataquest/SpringData/StudentsByLanguage.aspx?Level=County&amp;TheYear=2018-19&amp;SubGroup=All&amp;ShortYear=1819&amp;GenderGroup=B&amp;CDSCode=34000000000000&amp;RecordType=EL">https://data1.cde.ca.gov/dataquest/SpringData/StudentsByLanguage.aspx?Level=County&amp;TheYear=2018-19&amp;SubGroup=All&amp;ShortYear=1819&amp;GenderGroup=B&amp;CDSCode=34000000000000&amp;RecordType=EL</a>,  I was able to sort ELs based on Grade levels. For Kindergarten, the Sacramento County has a total of 4,705 students speaking at least one language other than English: <br>   -Spanish 2, 073<br>   -Russian 393<br>  -Hmong 263<br>  -Other 285 (no clarification)<br>  -Farsi 148<br>  -Vietnamese 210<br>  -Arabic 112<br>  -Cantonese 212<br> and the list goes on with at least 62 languages listed.<br><br>          Then, I went onto the Sacramento County Office of Education, SCOE, but did not find anything up to date. The most recent data they had was from 2013.  <br>Somehow, I landed on Ed.data.org which took me to very specific data information on ELs, but not on DLLs. Here are the current information I found on the ELs within the Elk Grove District. Census enrollment for 2018-2019 shows a total of 63,917 enrollment for TK-12th. Out of the 63,917 enrollment 8,986 were considered EL students, which is a 2,000 decrease from 2014 school year. The chart below will show languages spoken within the Elk Grove District. <br>     Between the Sac Unified  School District and the Twins River Unified School District, there are 5 schools that are either Dual Immersion Language program or Language Immersion Programs for the primary grades. Unfortunately, I was not able to located any specific data on the DLLs within the schools' website. </div>]]></description>

Monterey County has 30,608 Dual Language Learners enrolled throughout the county from K-12 grade school years. 85% of the students are Spanish speakers. Spanish is the number one language spoken in the county. <br>During my research I found out that Monterey County student enrollment in 2017 was 78.4 % Hispanics/Latinos, English Learners was 39.5% and English only 35%.<br>Our local Dual Language Academy of the Monterey County has a total of 466 students enrolled from K-8th grade. 79% of the students are Latinos, 10% of the students are White, 5% are Black/ African American and 6% are other races.  Hispanics have the lowest graduation rate in the county. Asian 93.8%, White 88.8%, Hispanics 84%, Migrant students 80.7% and English Learners 75%<br>In 2018 many English Learners in the city of Salinas had the lowest score for the California English Language Development Test well known as CELDT. Alvarez school put together a summer program designed for English learners. This summer program was build to help the students with writing, reading and decoding text. About 215 students from throughout the MPUSD took part of this summer program. The students were tested at the beginning of the course to evaluate their language level and they will be evaluated again at the end to see how much progress they made. <br>After reading so many articles I noticed that budget cuts have a tremendous effect for the Dual Language programs.<br><a href="https://datausa.io/profile/geo/monterey-county-ca/">https://datausa.io/profile/geo/monterey-county-ca/</a><br><a href="https://www.montereycoe.org/Assets/MontereyCOE/Superintendent/Files/Newsletters/MCOE_AnnualReport_2017_EN_final_press.pdf">https://www.montereycoe.org/Assets/MontereyCOE/Superintendent/Files/Newsletters/MCOE_AnnualReport_2017_EN_final_press.pdf</a><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Riverside County                          <br>I found it interesting to see that we had higher numbers of EL learners in the lower school grades like kinder to 2nd grade. After reading chapter 1 in our textbook I have to agree in the urgent need for Educators to learn more about creating inclusive teaching for those students. <br>https://data1.cde.ca.gov/dataquest/SpringData/StudentsByLanguage.aspx?Level=County&amp;TheYear=2018-19&amp;SubGroup=All&amp;ShortYear=1819&amp;GenderGroup=B&amp;CDSCode=33000000000000&amp;RecordType=EL<br><br><br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>For Ventura county I saw that 42.11% of students were enrolled that were english learners and fluent english proficient students.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Based on the information, I was surprised at how difficult and not current the statistics are to find on Dual Language Learners. I initially made the attempt to research this information under the California Department of Education web site but found it confusing and more information came up under the designation of English Language Learners. As we discussed in our last meeting there is a difference between these two. Though I do wonder why there is not an official definition for DLL. I found under other sites that it specifically states “There is no single consistent definition of dual language learners.” (https://www.childtrends.org/indicators/dual-language-learners).   As others have found, there is an increase of children who have another home language other than English. So, why is this not being tracked and monitored. The data collection was done in 2016.  If there is such a large population (4:10 families home language is not English) then there are many children who are not receiving the support.  My county of San Diego is considered the most linguistically diverse area for its size. Which feels like we could be front runners in collecting stats and implementing supports for children of different languages.  <br><br></div><div>It also became apparent how much the focus was on school age children versus those under the age of 5. We already have the research to support how much language and brain development occurs in these early years, so why are there no stats for these children who are in the process of early language development. It’s better to be proactive than reactive.<br><br></div>]]></description>
