The Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) Model is a research-based and validated instructional approach that addresses the linguistic and academic needs of English Language Learners. Lesson Preparation,

Building Background, Comprehensible Input, Interaction, Practice and Application are SIOP components. Questions to consider when planning for the needs of ELLs.

What language objectives do I need to include to address the linguistic development of ELLs?

How do I adapt the content and provide meaningful activities? (Lesson Preparation: Domain 2 )

How can I make connections and explicitly link past learning to new concepts?

(Building Background: DQ2, elements 6, 8)

How am I making instruction comprehensible to my ELLs based on their proficiency level?

(Comprehensible Input: Domain 1, elements 1,6-23)

How do I incorporate student interaction, practice time, and hands-on activites that encourage language development? (Interaction, Practice and Application: DQ 2-5)

Based upon the needs of my students, what other design questions should I plan for?

Routine Events and Enacted on the Spot

Lesson Segments Involving Routine Events

Design Question 1:

What will I do to communicate learning goals, track student progress and celebrate success?

1. Providing Clear Learning Goals and Scales

Learning goals will be written on the board and reviewed at the beginning of each period as well as when appropriate throughout the period. Students will have a tracking sheet with the goal written on them as well.

2. Tracking Student Progress

Students will have a tacking sheet that they will include all of their formative assessments on leading up th their summative assessment. They will have one per unit as well as a year long tracking sheet as they prepare for the EOC.

3. Celebrating Success

I will provide the students with specific praise when necessary.

I also have a wall that says looks whoo’s ding great with owls.

When students are meeting their learning goals based upon the summative assessments they get their name on the owl.

At the end of the next unit they enter the owls in for a drawing.

Design Question 6: What will I do to establish or maintain classroom rules and procedures?

4. Establishing Classroom Routines

Rules and procedures are posted in an easy to see location in the room. They are reviewed at the beginning of the year and again throughout the year. When a student is not following the rules or procedures I remind them of them.

5. Organizing the Physical Layout of the Classroom

Students sit at tables of 4 with shoulder partners. The tables are arranged so that I can move easily throughout the room and students can see form miuliple points. The supplies are located in easily asccesible locations when needed.

Lesson Segments Enacted on the Spot

Design Question 5:

What will I do to engage students?

24. Noticing When Students are Not Engaged

I will monitor student engagement by circulating around the room, randomly calling on students.

25. Using Academic Games

Students will play the boxing bingo and taboo

26. Managing Response Rate *

I will ask a question and count to 30 n my head prior to commenting. After the time if the student has not responded I will provide them with encouragement and allow for more time.

27. Using Physical Movement

Students will be able to move during stations. They will also have tangible acitivities like the boxing game.

28. Maintaining a Lively Pace

I will use an online timmer for activities so that we can stay on task, If I notice that students are finished bfore the allowed time I will adjust the time.

29. Demonstrating Intensity and Enthusiasm

I will smile, ue inflection, emphasisze certain terms or phrases, share storie, and use humor.

30. Providing Opportunities for Students to Talk about themselves

Desired Effect: Students make connections as they relate to the content.

How will I provide students with opportunities to relate what is being addressed in class to their personal interests?

How will I monitor for evidence of the extent to which these activities enhance the majority of students' engagement? (Resource: Becoming a Reflective

Teacher p. 156)

31. Presenting Unusual or Intriguing Information

I wil show the students the video clip Diabetes Man as well as the interesting dieases in the case study.

Design Question 7: What will I do to recognize adherence to classroom rules and procedures?

32. Demonstrating “Withitness”

Biology LESSON PLAN TEMPLATE: Macromolecules

I will circulate around the room. I will immediatey address students that are not adhering to the rules and procedures and either review the rules and procedures or give the student an immediate consequence.

33. Applying Consequences for Lack of Adherence to Rules and Procedures

If students are not adhering to the rules and procedures I will review them with them. If necessary to apply a consequence I will remove them of the activity and council with the student. I will contact their parents, share any issues with the dean and then follow the discipline guidelines at school.

34. Acknowledging Adherence to Rules and Procedures

I will provide the students with specific praise. I will contact home, and nominate students for students of the month.

Design Question 8: What will I do to establish and maintain effective relationships with students?

35. Understanding St udents’ Interests and Background

I will take time to talk to the students about their intersts. I will ask them questions about these activities throughout the door as I greet them. I will attend school related events that they are involved in. I will try to make connections to their interests in the course.

36. Using Verbal and Nonverbal Behaviors that Indicate Affection for Students

I will smile. Use humor, write notes of praise, shake studnets hands, provide them with encouragement.

37. Displaying Objectivity and Control

I will keep an even tone when dealing with student behavior. I will be fair and consiisitent.

Design Question 9: What will I do to communicate high expectations for all students?

38. Demonstrating Value and Respect for Low Expectancy Students

When I share the scale with the students I say that they need to soar for the four.

I will reference opportunities that students can have when they go above and beyond grade level expectations. I will remind the students that I know they have the potential to do anyting they set their mind to. I will continue to challenge them.

39. Asking Questions of Low Expectancy Students

I use popsibcle sticks to randomly call on students. I also keep a log of who I ask questions to.

40. Probing Incorrect Answers with Low Expectancy Students

I don’t give up on the students or allow them to say they don’t know. If appropriate I will take the time to probe the student and if not appropriate at tha time in front of the class I will go over to the student one-on-one to probe them. I may ask them to tell me what they know about the topic and then go from there or to use a peer to give them one clue to help them.
