Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This book is an invaluable resource for training educators to work effectively with English language learners. It presents a model of sheltered instruction, the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP), which provides school administrators, teachers, teacher candidates, and university field experience supervisors with a tool for observing and quantifying a teacher's implementation of quality sheltered instruction.Making Content Comprehensible presents a coherent, specific, field-tested model of sheltered instruction that specifies the features of a high quality sheltered lesson that teaches content material to English language learners. Each of the 30 items from the SIOP model are illustrated through vignettes. Three different lessons for each item are rated and discussed, allowing the book to be applied to a variety of content areas and grade levels.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - SIOP model book...
I borrowed this book from a colleague for a class I was taking and decided I wanted to own it. I found it priced the best on Amazon so now I do.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Efficient but wrong edition
I recieved my book very quick. That was great, however, there are three editions to this book. I needed the second edition, but was sent the first. My teacher worked with me about my book so that was fine and considering the price I paid, I was very happy.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Making Content Comprehensible for English Language Learners: The SIOP Model, Second Edition
Very practical book. It includes a checklist and lesson plan template in the back. Very useful!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - When they don't understand English
This is a must book for anyone who has to teach a content area to students who are learning English, whose home language is other than English. It provides an excellent instrument for self-evaluation, if one is the content-area teacher. I highly recommend it to all teachers who have English language learners in their classrooms. Nowadays, that is almost ALL teachers, K-16.
