NOT a SIOP component?

NOT a SIOP component?

• A. Preparation
• B. Building Background
• C. Comprehensible Input
• D. Student Assessments of Attitudes

Answer: (D)

Understanding SIOP means recognizing the eight elements that guide sheltered instruction: Preparation, Building Background, Comprehensible Input, Strategies, Interaction, Practice and Application, Lesson Delivery, and Review and Assessment. The option that isn’t part of this framework is assessments of students’ attitudes. SIOP centers on making content understandable and developing language skills, with ongoing checks on what students know and can do, not on measuring their attitudes. The other elements—preparing lessons, linking to background knowledge, and providing clear, accessible input—are all integral parts of how SIOP is designed to work.
