SIOP® aims to support teachers in embedding academic language development within their instruction, so that students can acquire and apply English in academic contexts, including discipline-specific vocabulary used in textbooks and lectures.
The SIOP Model is a research-based and validated instructional model that has proven effective in addressing the academic needs of multilingual learners.
The SIOP® Model consists of instructional strategies that address eight aspects of lesson design and delivery: lesson preparation, building background, comprehensible input, strategies, interaction, practice and application, lesson delivery, and review and assessment.
The eight SIOP® strategies and practices can support any student having trouble with academic vocabulary.
These cohorts are appropriate for any content teacher that works with EL Learners and would like to gain a better understanding of how to support the needs of students in the classroom.
