SHELTERED LESSON PLAN
|
Sheltered English is a technique used to teach second language students. This technique first teaches vocabulary and then teaches the lesson. By using a constant vocabulary and set of facts, second language students can learn grade level content area. Often they have already studied the area in their own language, so now they are learning new words for knowledge they already possess. A lesson begins with pictures and the learning of vocabulary. Remember to also use demonstrations a way to develop understanding. All learning is second language acquisition. To learn physics or calculus a student must know the vocabulary. Students, who have been to school, arrive with knowledge. Have them draw to show what their previous knowledge is. It is possible more than one lesson will be needed to learn the vocabulary. Spiral learning constantly reviews previous information then introduces new information then returns for review of already introduced information. Continue to repeat and add to the vocabulary. In presenting the lesson, have chosen the 5-8 basic facts you expect the student to learn. Provide guided practice with you or a helper giving support and encouragement. For these students there should be no independent practice. Cooperative learning activities replace independent practice at first. As the unit progresses appropriate independent activities may be assigned occasionally. Always go over the lesson and state what was learned. Have the student say what was learned. Keep a notebook and help student write what was learned daily. |
