SIOP
The Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol
is a teaching framework based on
decades of research of best practices
It is not an evaluation instrument
Implementation of SIOP can and will vary
depending on the needs of each school
SIOP Component
Interaction
“Use it or lose it”
Is a saying that conveys what we know from our
own experience in learning language
If one doesn’t practice using the language,
it is difficult to maintain it
(Day, 1998)
SIOP Component
Interaction
Language development is active, not
passive
Children learn their first language with the
assistance of adults and others who
encourage, model, paraphrase
acknowledge
Language is the primary vehicle for
intellectual development (Vygotsky, 1981)
SIOP Component
Interaction
Language affects not only communication, but
learning and acquisition of knowledge
Research consistently shows that teachers
dominate the linguistic environment of the
classroom
(CREDE, 2000)
SIOP Component
Interaction
The SIOP component of Interaction emphasizes the
importance of balancing linguistic turn-taking between
the teacher and students, and among students
Interaction highlights the consistent practice of
providing opportunities to use language through
listening, speaking, reading and writing
The component of Interaction encourages students to
elaborate their responses rather than accepting yes/no
and one word answers
SIOP Component
Interaction
Reading comprehension skills and writing
skills are positively correlated with oral
language proficiency
Increased effort is critical in order for
students to develop important oral
language skills
(Geva, 2006)
SIOP Component
Interaction
When learning to ride a bicycle, play the
piano, or articulate how convex lenses
differ from concave, students have a
greater chance of mastering content
concepts and skills when they are given
multiple opportunities to practice relevant,
meaningful ways.
SIOP Component
Interaction
Frequent Opportunities for Student Interaction
and Discussion lead to:






Increased Motivation
Increased Attention
More Processing Time
Varied Grouping Configurations
Opportunity for Students to Clarify Key
Concepts
Increased Vocabulary & Language Proficiency
Interaction Component &
Protocol Features
When planning lessons, please begin to consider the
Interaction features of the
Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol




Frequent opportunities for interaction & discussion
between teacher/student, & among students
Grouping configurations support language & content
objectives of the lesson
Sufficient wait time for student responses consistently
provided
Ample opportunities for students to clarify key concepts
SIOP Coach Support
SIOP Coaches are in each building to assist
with:






Implementing the SIOP model in his/her own
classroom
Observe and coach fellow SIOP coaches & teachers
Coach/support other staff members who have taken
SIOP
Attend district supported, on-going professional
development
Provide building level professional development that
will continue to build awareness of SIOP
Encourage teachers to complete SIOP Training
