Food for thought
“ …educators have begun to
realize that the mastery of
academic subjects is the mastery
of their specialized patterns of
language use, and that language is
the dominant medium through
which these subjects are taught
and students’ mastery o them
tested.” (Lempke, 1988, p.1)

What is SIOP?
S = Sheltered
I = Instructional
O = Observation
P = Protocol
SIOP was started by Echevarria &
Short to assist teachers in
improving their adaptations for
ELLs in L2 taught classes.

What is SIOP?
Sheltered instruction is
one of the instructional models that uses
English only.
Not a set of additional or replacement
instructional techniques for the content area
classroom with native speakers.
An instructional form to extend time ELLs
have for language support services while
providing content area information required
for graduation.
Wide-spread and exists in many variations
SIOP & research
5
What is SIOP?
 SIOP includes specific lesson planning and
delivery suggestions and teacher observation
protocols
 Sheltered instruction includes strategies such
as
 Cooperative learning,
 Explicit, targeted vocabulary development
 Slower speech with clear enunciation and fewer
idiomatic expressions
 Visuals, demonstrations and hands-on learning
 Text adaptations
 Homework adaptations
 Supplementary materials

What is SIOP?
SIOP is research based and validated
through multiple studies.
SIOP is used in SC school districts to
meet ELL students’ needs.

areas
by being engaged in content area
learning in L2

ELL research findings
The National Literacy Panel on
Language Minority Children and Youth
(NLP) conducted a summary of research
on ELL instruction, second language
acquisition, crosslinguistic and
sociocultural factors, ELL assessment
and professional development
conducted by (August & Shanahan,
2006), the following research-based
statements can be made:
SIOP & research
22
ELL research findings
(1) ELLs benefit from instruction in the
key components of reading as defined
by the National Reading Panel (NICHD,
2000); This includes explicit instruction
in
Phonemic awareness, letter-sound
awareness, fluency, vocabulary, and text
comprehension
SIOP & research
23
ELL research findings
 (2) Explicit instruction in these 5 areas is
necessary but not sufficient to teach ELLs to
read, write and spell proficiently in
English.Oral language proficiency for social
and academic purposes is necessary also.
 (3) Oral proficiency and literacy in the
student’s L1 will facilitate development of
literacy in L2 (English). Literacy in L2 can also
be developed in L2 without literacy proficiency
in L1.
SIOP & research
24
ELL research findings
(4) Individual student characteristics
and history of migration play a
significant role in L2 literacy
development.
(5) Home language experiences can
contribute to L2 (English) literacy
development. However, there is limited
research on the influence of sociocultural factors on L2 acquisition
processes.
SIOP & research
25
ELL research findings
 Researchers from the National Center for
Research on Education, Diversity and
Excellence (CREDE), a federally funded
research center until recently, conducted a
second major review of L2 literacy
development.
 The focus was
 Oral language development
 Literacy development from linguistic and crosslinguistic angles
 Academic achievement
SIOP & research
26
ELL research findings
Both groups came to similar
conclusions:
(1)L2 literacy development is
influenced by numerous variables
that influence each other. Among
them are socio-economic status, L1
literacy base, and L2 oral
performance.
SIOP & research
27
ELL research findings
(2) Certain L1 literacy skills transfer to L2
even if these two language s differ in
print, pronunciation, and writing
conventions. Among them are
–
phonemic awareness
–
morphological awareness
–
listening and reading
comprehension
–
language learning strategies
SIOP & research
28
ELL research findings
(3) Oral performance and literacy
(tasks involved in managing print) can
develop simultaneously.
(4) Academic literacy skills in L1
positively support literacy development
in L2.
(5) ELLs need enhanced, explicit
vocabulary instruction.
SIOP & research
29
ELL research findings
 (6) High quality instruction for ELLs is similar
to high quality instruction for other native
speakers; but ELLs need instructional
accommodations (mandated by law!) and
other additional support to succeed at the
academic level
 (7) teaching the 5 major components fo
reading (NICHD, 2000) to ELLs is necessary
but not sufficient for developing academic
literacy. ELLs need to develop oral language
proficiency as well.
