The SIOP Model STRATEGIES
2
Content Objectives

• We will
• Select learning strategies appropriate to a
  lessons objectives
• Incorporate explicit instruction and student
  practice with learning strategies in planning
  lessons

3
Language Objectives

• We will
• Use a variety of sentence types to explain the
  metacognitive, cognitive, and language learning
  strategies included in a lesson.
• Utilize a conjunction such as because to
  justify the scaffolding techniques included in
  your lesson.

Practice a Strategy Four Corners

• Move to the sign which represents where you would
  like to spend your next vacation.
• Read the information given to your group.
• Create a mnemonic to share with the group to help
  us remember these learning strategies.

Passing Strategy Expertise to Students

• I DO YOU WATCHI DO YOU HELPYOU DO I
  HELPYOU DO I WATCH
• Another way of putting it is from the students'
  perspectives
• SHOW ME HELP ME LET ME

Teaching Ideas for Strategies from Making Content
Comprehensible

• SQP2RS surveying, questioning, predicting,
  reading, responding, summarizing
• Directed Reading-Thinking Activity
• GIST Generating Interaction between Schemata
  and Text (Cunningham, 1982)
• Rehearsal strategies
• Graphic organizers
• Reciprocal Teaching

Using Higher Order Questioning

• Questioning techniques can elicit responses from
  students that involve higher-order thinking
  skills regardless of language level.

• What learning strategies were used in this video
  segment?
• How could these strategies be used in other ways?
• What verbal, procedural, or instructional
  scaffolding occurred?
• What types of questions did the teacher ask her
  students?
