NYSED Bilingual Progressions
"Beginning in Spring, 2012, NYSED launched the Bilingual Common Core Initiative to develop new English as a Second Language and Native Language Arts Standards aligned to the Common Core. As a result of extensive research and a three-year process, NYSED has developed two sets of resources known as the New Language Arts Progressions (NLAP) and the Home Language Arts Progressions (HLAP) for every NYS Common [A1] Core Learning Standard (CCLS) in every grade. The NLAP and HLAP provide a framework for teachers to ensure that students English as a New Language and Bilingual Education programs are meeting the CCLS. The Progressions include five levels of language proficiency and demonstrate a trajectory of language learning and teaching."

Teacher’s Guide to Implement the Bilingual Common Core Progressions
This document explains the New Language and Home Language Arts Progressions, breaking down each component and explaining how teachers can apply the resources in their classrooms.
"The Supporting All Students Resource Guides were designed through collaboration between the New York State Education Department and partners in the field. The purpose of these guides is to provide teachers with examples of scaffolds and strategies to supplement their instruction of English language arts (ELA) and mathematics curricula. The guides use the EngageNY ELA and mathematics modules as exemplars since they are free and open source curricula available for all New York State educators. "
