Making Content Comprehensible for English Learners: The SIOP® Model
3rd Edition
Jana Echevarria, Mary Ellen Vogt, and Deborah Short
Published by Allyn & Bacon
The third edition of this widely-used publication presents the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) Model*, a research-based and validated model of sheltered instruction. The SIOP Model allows educators to plan and implement high-quality sheltered lessons for English language learners that integrate English language and academic content instruction. Written by the researchers and developers of the SIOP Model, the book includes a practical and comprehensive discussion of each component of the model as well as teaching scenarios that illustrate its implementation. The appendices include a summary of past and current research on the model, the SIOP Model observation protocol, and SIOP lesson plan templates.
New with the third edition is a CD-ROM with teaching vignettes, interviews with the authors, lesson plans formats, and more.
