Third grader Jorge, an ELL student, is reading at a first grade level. He has had limited math and reading instruction, but his teacher wonders if he is eligible for special education. Under IDEA 2004, which of the following is not true?

  1. ELL students do not qualify for special ed services if they have not received adequate reading or math training.
  2. ELL students do not qualify for special ed services if the reason for the delay is that the child’s second language is English.
  3. ELL students unilaterally qualify for special ed services.
  4. ELL students must receive assessments in their native language.
Explanation

Answer: C-ELL students do not unilaterally qualify for special ed services. In general, they qualify only when formal evaluations indicate that the deficit is not caused by a lack of exposure to English or to a lack of adequate reading and math training.
