Scaffolded instructional routines tiered by proficiency level: Entering, Emerging & Developing, and Expanding & Bridging
Language-Rich Classrooms Start Here
Multilingual classrooms need more than resources; they need teachers who feel supported and students who feel seen. AVID Emerge delivers what matters most: a flexible instructional toolkit and professional learning that lifts both.
Emerge provides ready-to-use routines, scaffolded lessons, and family connection workshops for PreK–12 that enhance, not replace, your existing curriculum. Grounded in AVID’s proven strategies and tailored specifically for multilingual learners, AVID Emerge empowers educators to create language-rich, student-centered classrooms where every learner can build confidence.
You know what your students need; Emerge helps you deliver it with confidence and clarity.

Language Support That Grows With Multilingual Learners
Whether you’re supporting newcomers, long-term ELs, or students who simply need more access to language-rich instruction, Emerge is here to help you make every moment count.
What’s Inside the Toolkit?
Everything you need to support English learners; nothing you don’t. No extra planning, no curriculum overhaul, just clear, ready-to-use tools that meet your learners where they are.
How We Support Every Learner
One-size-fits-all doesn’t work when supporting multilingual learners—and AVID Emerge is built with this in mind. Each instructional routine in the Emerge toolkit is backed by scaffolding designed to support students at Entering, Emerging & Developing, and Expanding & Bridging proficiency levels.
Whether you're implementing a critical reading routine in tenth grade or a community builder in second, you'll find developmentally appropriate materials that help students grow in language and confidence without extra prep work.
Each lesson includes:
Tiered scaffolds aligned to language proficiency.
Routine-specific slide decks and instructional guides.
Embedded tips to build student ownership and transferal.
AVID Emerge helps teachers implement high-impact routines with flexibility and clarity, so that students aren’t just participating, they’re thriving.
Professional Learning That Respects Your Time
Emerge isn’t just professional learning, it’s professional support. Our continuing support model is for real schools and real pacing, with practical training that helps teachers implement routines immediately and deepen their impact over time.
