Teachers of languages may wish to use these documents to evaluate professional practice.
The following links direct teachers to a PDF document of the language-specific standards which have been developed:
Aligning Standards CHINESE
Aligning Standards FRENCH
Aligning Standards GERMAN
Aligning Standards INDONESIAN
Aligning Standards ITALIAN
