SIOP Language Analysis Template: Name:________________________

Along with the revised peer reviewed visual literacy activity, I want you to now fill out the SIOP
Language Analysis Template. You will need to think about this activity more in depth and
answer all the questions listed in the template to be able to finish the assignment with a fully
thought out plan in place for a visual literacy activity that also meets the needs of your ELLs
students. See the template details for more information on how to complete it, please feel free
to alter or add anything that you see fit to your original plan into this template based on our
discussion and peer review today. This is meant to be a progressive assignment that continues
to build upon itself to allow you to consider new aspects of integrating visual literacy into your
planning.

SIOP Language Analysis Template

Instructions: Think about your visual literacy lesson and its corresponding content objectives.
Come up with at least one language objective that you feel your students are practicing in
this lesson. Next analyze your lesson for how well the interactive activities practice each
language domain. Think about the group configurations that would be best for this kind of
language practice. Also consider the academic and content vocabulary. Lastly think about
how students will practice each piece of vocabulary by coming up with sentence stems and
ways they could use each one in a sentence.

Lesson Language Objective: (Add at least 1 language objective for this project. Pick one or
more of the language domains that you think could be practiced during this activity and create
an objective for it. It must relate to your visual literacy lesson.) 5 points

Students will use language such as cool and warm colors, one perspective drawing, and
describe what mood evokes their artwork.

Domain Practice: (For this section think about the procedure in your lesson plan so far, now
analyze it for how well it used the four language domains. Tell me where/how you built in
practice of each domain, and if one is missing tell me how you could alter the lesson to
incorporate that domain. All four domains need to be described.) 5 points

Students will be listening and speaking by doing a question and answer activity about prior
knowledge in the beginning of the lesson. Students are reading and writing when doing the
brainstorming sheet before starting the project. Students are also reading when looking at the
checklist to determine if their project is ready to be turned in.

Group Configuration: (Think about the best ways you could group students to help practice
these domains. Would this be whole group discussions, small groups discussions at their tables,
sharing with partners, etc. How might you help your language learners by partnering them with
certain students? Why did you pick this group configuration?) 5 points

For this activity all students are able to help each other. I would put the English learners in the
middle by each other for support while also being with the rest of the class. So, they will be able
to use both resources as well as the teacher if assistance is needed.

Content and Academic Language Vocabulary: (Look at the lesson you made so far. What
content vocabulary will be taught? Also, what academic vocabulary and language skills the
students will practice. Break it up into two parts, the vocabulary and the language skills. Think
nouns and verbs. Make sure it is a complete list of any new vocabulary you’d use.) 5 points

I would use warm and cool color vocabulary as well as point of view drawing. Since they’re
creating something from their own perspective and based on their eyesight. When looking out
the window the students are going to have to draw it going back to the window. We can also
add mood to base on color palettes used.

Vocabulary and Academic Language Usage: (Give possible sentence stems or ways each new
vocabulary term can be used in a sentence. This will model to students how they will use the
vocabulary and language skills they are being taught. Give possible sentence stems and ways of
modeling the potential ways students will use the vocabulary and language skills they are being
taught. See the example for ideas. There needs to be one for every vocabulary term you listed
above.) 5 points
