99 Ideas and Activities for Teaching English Learners with the SIOP Model

Customer Reviews:

Great Teacher Resource

By JD - June 22, 2009

I was required to take an ELL course a few years ago. This course focused on the SIOP method and used Making Content Comprehensible for English Learners: The SIOP Model (3rd Edition) (SIOP Series) as its textbook. I purchased the book that is being reviewed because I felt it would be a good companion to the original.

Well, I was right. This book has so many wonderful, practical ideas that I can use throughout the school year. Not only will I use these ideas for my ELL students, but for all my students as well. I particularly like the numerous ways to build background before teaching a new topic. This is an area which is so important but many teachers tend to overlook.

I recommend this book and the SIOP method for any teacher who has ELL students in the classroom and must comply with state requirements.

I bought this book to go with a 5-day, 45-clock-hour SEI course. We've actually done some of the activities in class and the majority require planning, but not too much prep time. The book is well-written and organized in a logical fashion. A good resource for teachers who deal with a lot of ELL students (like here in central AZ.)

By Yoko Allen - February 21, 2010

This book contains some of the most useful teaching strategies that meet important criterias in teaching English to ELL students. I actually used some of the strategies from the book in my class when teaching my adult students, and I felt that the book was easy to use because the strategies were explicitly yet clearly described so that I could learn some strategies in a short amount of time. Some of other strategy based book provides lengthy explanation about how each strategy should be introduced, and teachers often end up wasting so much time just by reading and trying to understand the strategies. Considering that, I believe this book is very handy for any teachers.
Although I have found some really useful ideas in the book, I have to say that some of the ideas were somewhat redundant. A third of the strategies listed could be considered as common sense for most teachers. In addition, I have seen some teachers employing some strategies from the book and feeling satisfied just... read more
