SIOP

SIOP, or Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol, is a framework designed to support teachers in effectively teaching students who are learning English while also learning academic content. It provides strategies to make lessons understandable and engaging, such as using visual aids, clear language, and interactive activities. The goal is to help students improve their language skills and grasp subject material simultaneously. By following SIOP, teachers can create inclusive classrooms that strengthen learning for English language learners without diluting the academic rigor. It’s a structured approach to ensure all students have access to quality education.
