Make this #1 choice for professional development

Mak[[ASIN:0205518869 Making Content Comprehensible for English Learners: The SIOP Model (3rd Edition) (SIOP Series)] is a "must read" for all ESOL educators in today's world of high stakes testing. The SIOP model described in this book is based on research of the best practices of sheltered ESOL and regular teachers. These "best practices" are combined in a format for teachers to use in planning and executing content area lessons that will also promote English language development. Since our ESOL students are expected to pass content area tests to receive a high school diploma in four years, it is imperative that we begin teaching them content in a structured way while they learn the English language. I've been to several conferences and workshops telling about the SIOP model, but this book has helped me to truly understand it and has inspired me to use the SIOP model in my content ESOL classes in the coming school year. If you only have a limited budget for professional resources, make this book your number 1 choice. Get your faculty together and use it as professional development tool to ensure that your ESOL students are receiving the best instruction possible to eqip them for education in American schools.

not just for teacher of ell

All teachers interested in differentiating instruction or administrators working with staff around DI will find this book especially useful. The publishers should advertise it as a strong reference for differentiation. As a director of instruction, i am using it with staff in several disciplines.

Great Teaching Book

This is a great teaching book. I rarely write reviews but had to make an exception for this book. It is written in a clear style and includes a CD for the computer where you can see good teaching examples. It gives and compares great teaching lessons to poor teaching lessons on the same topic from 1st grade through high school.
I have been teaching for a number of years but this book has greatly improved my teaching skills. It focuses on teaching ESL students from 1st grade through high school, emphasizing oral interaction, but the lessons are just good examples of teaching for the general classroom at any level. I highly recommend it - period!
