Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 13, July 16, 2024
The department-approved Spanish language development
				  standards provide companion piece to the New Mexico content standards for
				  Spanish language arts (6.29.15 NMAC). The approved standards shall guide
				  second-language instruction for PreK-12 Spanish language learner students. The
				  Spanish language learner population falls into three basic categories: students
				  whose primary or home language (L1) is Spanish; students from heritage language
				  groups needing enrichment and further development of academic Spanish, some of
				  whom maintain degrees of fluency in their heritage language; and any other
				  students needing further development of academic Spanish. Because instruction
				  must address the appropriate proficiency level of the individual student, which
				  may vary greatly for any age, some consideration must be made for the student's
				  maturity level.
