What it does
Your lesson plan, rewritten so students learning English can follow the content and still learn the subject. Paste the plan, and you get a version with clear language goals added. The skill uses the SIOP model from Echevarria, Vogt and Short. It reads your lesson and applies its eight parts, such as lesson preparation, building background, clear input, strategies, interaction, practice, delivery and review. You add the subject and year group. If you do not give student details, it assumes a mixed class of four to six learners across proficiency levels and a 60 minute lesson. The result keeps the content demand and adds the language help.
