Welcome to ELA at Conrad Ball Middle School in Loveland, Colorado =[|ELA at Con Ball]=



[|ELA Info CBMS]
Conrad Ball Middle School features an “assisted immersion” model, which means the students attend regular, content classes. As needed, students receive para-professional assistance. The regular teachers accommodate materials for their ELA students, by differentiating class content to make it more comprehensible. ELA students also receive English Language instruction. Classes are set-up according to language ability. The instructor uses the READ 180 program, designated middle school-ELA curriculum and data-driven instruction to guide daily class planning and structure. ELA students are also involved in Service Learning. The “A-B-C Recyclers” is an award-winning program, whereby students experience the value of learning about the environment, while helping out at school by recycling paper products each week. English Language Acquisition Classes (ELA) at Conrad Ball Middle School are taught by Instructor Betsy Perna.
