Preferred term

labeling bilingual education clients: lesa, lep, and ell  

Definition

  • Part of the story of the evolving definition of the clients of bilingual education is reflected in the labels used to describe them—more specifically, changes in the labels used to describe their linguistic condition: a less-than-adequate command of English. This entry reviews three of the principal labels and how they changed during three decades of practice.
