The SIOP Model, a research based and validated model of sheltered instruction, allows educators to plan and implement high-quality sheltered lessons for ELLs that integrate English language and academic content instruction. Written by the researchers and developers of the SIOP Model, this book can help administrators design SIOP initiatives as well as support and assess teachers as they implement SIOP instruction. 2008
