The SIOP Model for
Elementary Classrooms
with English Learners
Prepared for the SFSD by Marcia Gaudet and Suzanne Maxwell
Content from Making Content Comprehensible for Elementary English
Learners THE SIOP MODEL, Echevarria, Vogt, & Short, 2010
Content Learning Goals:
I can identify the 8 components of the SIOP model.
I can reflect on student needs and how the SIOP model
meets those needs.
Language Learning Goals:
I can listen to and read a story about two English
Learners (ELs).
 I can discuss and list 3 challenges for ELs in a
classroom.
I can list 3 SIOP features that help students overcome
these challenges.
Think of a time when
you were learning a
new language. In one
word, describe your
experience. Write that
word on a sticky note.
Sticky Note
Who are ELLs?

Who are ELL students in South Dakota?
◦ Refugee students - placed through the UN
& Secondary refugee students (no financial
help)
◦ Students who are immigrating on other types
of visas: Ethiopia - Diversity visa, Mexico, etc.
◦ Students born in the USA whose home
language is other than English
◦ International students who have been adopted!
◦ Students who are children of visiting
professionals and higher ed students (studying
at Augustana, etc.)
Where do ELLs come from?


In the SFSD there are
over 61 languages
from 67 countries
At the Immersion Center
we are now seeing
students from:
 Iraq, Yemen (Arabic)
 Somalia,Kenya,Tanzania,
Congo,Ethiopia, Burundi,
Liberia, Ivory Coast
 Burma, Thailand, Nepal
 Mexico, Guatemala
What are Three Foundational
Issues in ELL?
 1.
Acculturation
• Explicitly teach US study skills/behavior
 2.
Language Acquisition
• Teach content while teaching literacy
• Context embedded/Adaptations for Lang.
 3.
Classroom Instruction that Works
• SIOP: Sheltered Instruction Observation
Protocol
Federal Legislation: Lau vs. Nichols
(1974)

This was a lawsuit on behalf of Chinese students in
San Francisco public schools.

The Supreme Court ruled that identical education
does not constitute equal education under the Civil
Rights Act.

“There is no equality of treatment merely by
providing students with the same facilities, textbooks,
teachers, and curriculum; for students who do not
understand English are effectively foreclosed from
any meaningful education.”
Federal Legislation:
Equal Educational Opportunity Act
(1974)

Within two weeks of Lau vs. Nichols, Congress passed
the Equal Opportunity Act.

“No state shall deny equal educational opportunity to
an individual on account of his or her race, color, sex,
national origin or by failure of an educational agency
to take appropriate action to overcome language
barriers that impede equal participation by its
students in its instructional programs.”
We need to ensure that we are
teaching our ELs GRADE LEVEL
CONTENT while simultaneously
increasing their ACADEMIC
English proficiency!
Chapter 1, #2
For English
learners,
BICS is really
just the tip
of the
iceberg!
CALP is what
takes many
years to
develop and
what is
needed to
obtain
academic
success!
Many teachers say…..”I don’t understand why my ELs
aren’t doing well in my class. They can speak English
just fine!”
CALP
BICS
Basic Interpersonal
Communication Skills
Cognitive Academic
Language Proficiency

Learning Objectives are Essential
1.
2.
3.
4.
They guide both teaching and learning in a classroom.
You need to have both content and language learning goals.
They are the foundation of a lesson.
They should be written in kid friendly language, posted and
reviewed with students.
5. Attainment of the objectives should be assessed and
reviewed with the students at the end of the lesson.
Content Learning Goals…

describe what the
students will be learning

come from grade level
content standards
Language Learning Goals…

describe how the students
will demonstrate their
knowledge

build students’ academic
language proficiency in
each subject area
Examples of Content and Language Objectives

know this because the text is ______.
Feature 2 – Building Background
Concepts are Linked to Students’ Background
Experiences
Links Explicitly Made Between Past Learning and
New Concepts
Key Vocabulary Emphasized
Building Background Knowledge

How is building background knowledge different from
activating background knowledge?
TURN AND TALK using this sentence frame...
oAll learners have background knowledge which has been
acquired
through
school and
life experiences.
Building
background
knowledge
is different from
activating background knowledge because…..
oConnecting current learning to previous learning is
activating prior knowledge.
oHowever, some ELs have little, to no prior knowledge about a
topic. Therefore brainstorming about it or doing a KWL chart
may not be helpful.
oIt is critical that teachers use techniques to build their
and talk
knowledge of a topic and fill in the Turn
gaps.

Interventions for When Students
Lack Background Knowledge
Needed for Academic Success
1. Pre-Teach Vocabulary Words!
o
Teachers should select vocabulary terms that are
CRITICAL for understanding a text or concept.
o
These words should be presented using both linguistic
and nonlinguistic representations.
o
Students should have multiple meaningful interactions
with the words.
Interventions Continued……
2. Provide meaningful and relevant experiences
for students. The quality of an experience
enhances the likelihood of it being stored in the
permanent memory.
o
Bring in realia or use supplemental materials (Google
images)
o
Show a movie or video clip prior to teaching a lesson
(Learn360 videos)
o
Take field trip
o
Use picture books to introduce students to new
information
Interventions Continued……
3. Introduce a conceptual framework which
will allow students to build their
background knowledge.
o
Use graphic organizers to help students understand key
ideas
o
Preview the text with students, focusing on key ideas
o
Link present learning to past learning
Feature 3 – Comprehensible Input
 Speech Appropriate for Students’ Proficiency
Levels
Clear Explanation of Academic Task
A Variety of Techniques Used to Make Content
Concepts Clear
Comprehensible Input:
Nonlinguistic Representation


Nonlinguistic representation help ELLs.

Nonlinguistic representations include real objects,
pictures, pictographs, diagrams, physical models,
video clips, recorded sounds, gestures, and
movement.

Seeing is remembering.

The Story of Graciela and Jocelyn
“Hola Prima,” called Graciela to her
cousin, Jocelyn, on the playground “Ayuda
con mi
tarea!” Graciela asked her cousin for help
with a homework assignment. “Cúal es el problema?”
replied Jocelyn. Graciela went on to explain that she had
to write a paper about recycling. She had to write an action
plan, but she didn’t know what an action plan was.
The two girls are cousins from Central America who
entered fourth grade in Bray Elementary School together
seven months earlier. They were placed in different classes
in this suburban setting, but because the fourth grade
science teachers all did the same projects, Jocelyn knew
how to help her cousin.
Jocelyn’s Classroom
She explained that they had already started to work
on that project. They had looked through the trash can in
the lunchroom and found many things that could be
recycled. They are creating a bulletin board with
vocabulary and pictures about recycling. They had watched
two videos, one about neighborhood families recycling and
one about a recycling plant. They were going to make
paper the next day.
“We have to make a poster with our partner telling
why it is important to recycle,” Jocelyn told her cousin.
“We made a list in class of reasons and I decided to try to
stop pollution in the sea. Ms. Sylvan showed us two
posters from last year’s class. Then she bookmarked some
websites for me to look at. Some of them are in Spanish
and you can listen to people talking about pollution and
recycling. “What did you do in class?”
Graciela’s Classroom
Graciela explained that one day the teacher had
talked to them for a long time about what recycling is and
why it is important. “She told us to take notes when she
talked, but it was hard. She talked too fast and she didn’t
write anything on the board. Then we read a few pages in
our science textbook and answered questions yesterday.
Today she gave us this sheet and told us to start writing
our ideas.” Graciela showed her cousin the assignment:
Think of a recycling project. What needs to be improved in your
school or town? Write an action plan proposing the school board or the
town council take steps to alleviate the problem or introduce a new
program.
Jocelyn shook her head slowly as she looked at the
paper. “I know what we can do. Let’s go ask Ms. Sylvan.
She just came out of the cafeteria.”
