What is the difference between “primary language (L1) support” in row 6 and “primary language (L1) instruction” in row 7 (Part 2, section B)?

“Primary language support” refers to the use of the primary language to support lessons that are taught mainly by using English. The use of bilingual paraprofessionals to support lessons taught in English by a classroom teacher would be an example of primary language support. Other examples would be clarifications or preview/review provided in the primary language by a teacher or aide. “Primary language (L1) instruction” refers to lessons taught directly and primarily in the primary language by a qualified teacher and supported by corresponding written materials in the primary language.
