Sheltered Instruction
Sheltered instruction doesn’t require
teachers to throw away their favorite
techniques, or add copious new elements to
their teaching.
Sheltered instruction brings
together what to teach by
providing an approach for how to teach it.
(Echevarria, Vogt, Short, 2000)

Concepts explicitly linked to students’
background experience.
Student learning can be enhanced if we
tie into their existing “schema”
Links explicitly made between past
learning and new concepts.
Key vocabulary emphasized: introduced,
written, repeated and highlighted for
students to see.
