Etra NOTES from professor:For this week’s assignment you will be in the virtual classroom. You will create a new SIOP lesson plan for these students.  This can relate what you have just watched on the video or to something else.   This is up to you. The college’s assignment guidelines are not overally clear for this one.  Make sure that you address the instructional strategies for ELL classrooms and the conditions under which they are best utilized. This assignment will be worth 2 hours of your observation/field experience.  You don’t need to record these hours. I have attached a SIOP lesson plan template here if you need one.
