    Great for principals AND teachers, February 16, 2002

    In a field that is sometimes long on theory but woefully short on substance, the authors have done an impressive job of combining a useable observation tool (the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol, or SIOP) with some practical, real-life vignettes that illustrate each of the elements presented. The SIOP goes through every step of the sheltering process, from lesson preparation through delivery and evaluation, and does it in a user-friendly fashion.
    Teachers of English language learners will find descriptions of effective–and ineffective–planning and instructional strategies. Principals and other educational supervisors will find a much-needed tool for observing and coaching teachers in how to shelter content for students who are still acquiring English. A must-read for anyone training for the principalship, and a should-read, could-use for any teacher of English language learning students.

    I bought this book to support me in my efforts to achieve National Board Certification in the area of English as a New Language. The book was very helpful in the area of breaking down lessons and presenting them in ways studnets could grasp.

    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.
