ready for kindergarten. Schools have different names for these programs (for example, early transitional
kindergarten (ETK), readiness kindergarten, or a kindergarten equivalent in a classroom without grades or
one with multiple grades), but all are types of kindergarten. The program may be in a public or private school,
or an early childhood setting such as a nursery school, early childhood learning center, or day care center. It
may be a full- or part-day program and have regular and/or special education.

HELP FOR STEM: ESL Instruction: A program of techniques, methodology, and special curriculum designed to
teach ELL students English language skills, which may include listening, speaking, reading, writing, study skills,
content vocabulary, and cultural orientation. ESL instruction is usually in English with little use of native
language.
Bilingual Instruction: Instruction in all courses and subjects given in English and the native language of the
child of limited English proficiency to the extent necessary to allow the child to achieve competence.
Dual Language Instruction: Also known as two-way immersion, the goal of these programs is for students to
develop language proficiency in two languages by receiving content instruction in English and another
language in a classroom that usually consists of both native English speakers and native speakers of the other
language.

students,” who have been identified as low achieving.
Schoolwide program: A schoolwide program may use Title I funds to improve the quality of educational
programs and services throughout the school. A school may use Title I funds for a schoolwide program if at
least 40 percent of its students are from low-income families, or if it receives a waiver permitting it to operate
a schoolwide program.

extra year of school before kindergarten starts. It is different from preschool or prekindergarten. TK may be
for children who are too young to start kindergarten or need more time to be ready for kindergarten. Schools
have different names for these programs (for example, early transitional kindergarten (ETK), readiness
kindergarten, or a kindergarten equivalent in a classroom without grades or one with multiple grades), but all
are types of kindergarten. The program may be in a public or private school, or an early childhood setting
such as a nursery school, early childhood learning center, or day care center. It may be a full- or part-day
program and have regular and/or special education.

HELP FOR STEM: Transitional (or readiness) kindergarten (TK): A transitional kindergarten (TK) program is an
extra year of school before kindergarten starts. It is different from preschool or prekindergarten. TK may be
for children who are too young to start kindergarten or need more time to be ready for kindergarten. Schools
have different names for these programs (for example, early transitional kindergarten (ETK), readiness
kindergarten, or a kindergarten equivalent in a classroom without grades or one with multiple grades), but all
are types of kindergarten. The program may be in a public or private school, or an early childhood setting
such as a nursery school, early childhood learning center, or day care center. It may be a full- or part-day
program and have regular and/or special education.
