This is a pretty thick book. Let me just start with that. :) And although it looks a bit daunting, it is actually very accessible content-wise. The book focuses on contemporary language acquisition, and it includes very detailed activities and ideas for teaching emerging bilingual students. I found the lesson description and graphics to be very interesting and helpful in assisting me with increasing my knowledge of how to better present instruction to students learning the English language. Although you may not sit down and read the book as a whole, it is an excellent resource to add to your professional library.

Making Content Comprehensible for English Learners: The SIOP Model by Echevarria, Vogt, and Short4/24/2022 I can't say that you are going to pick this book up and read it like your favorite novel; it is not that kind of book. It is, however, a helpful text for teachers of emerging bilingual students. The authors do an effective job of explaining the SIOP model and breaking it down into a pretty user-friendly framework for readers to follow. I would recommend it for instructors wanting to learn about the SIOP lesson planning process. It is a good resource for new learners to SIOP as well as a good review for those of us needing to review the SIOP Model. |
