The SIOP Model is a research-based approach to sheltered instruction that has proven effective in addressing the academic needs of English language learners throughout the United States. The model consists of eight components:
Lesson Preparation
Building Background
Comprehensible Input
Strategies
Interaction
Practice/Application
Lesson Delivery, and
Review/Assessment
Using instructional strategies linked to these components, content area teachers help English learners develop their academic English skills as they learn grade-level content. Training in the SIOP Model helps teachers plan and deliver lessons that incorporate these strategies consistently.
Who Uses the SIOP Model?
Elementary classroom teachers
Secondary subject-area teachers
Coaches and mentor teachers
ESL teachers
Bilingual program teachers
Staff developers
School and district administrators
Teacher education faculty
Pre-service teacher candidates
Why Use the SIOP Model?
Need: As the number of English language learners (ELLs) in schools increases, teachers are looking for effective instructional practices to reach all of their students.
Practicality: Teachers and researchers worked collaboratively to create this effective approach to high quality instruction for ELLs.
Accountability: The SIOP Model includes a reliable and valid measure of effective instruction.
Impact: Research on the SIOP Model has shown that ELLs' academic skills improve when teachers implement it fully.
