CAL SIOP Training of Trainers Institute: Advanced Coaching Strategies

January 5th, 12th, 19th, 26th, 2023

Learn effective strategies for providing job-embedded support for teachers implementing the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) Model in your schools.  Please join us for this engaging 2023 online version of our CAL SIOP TOT.

 This comprehensive and interactive institute is designed to help participants develop and deliver SIOP Model professional development as coaches or other instructional leadership roles.

The Advanced Strategies institute is designed for those participants who have prior knowledge of the SIOP Model and are supporting teachers in their implementation. In this institute, participants will review and renew specific components and features in order to deepen their knowledge of the SIOP Model. Participants will also extend their own professional skills in supporting teachers’  application of the model by exploring the implementation of job embedded professional development practices such as coaching, guided lesson planning by content area/grade level, development of professional learning communities, and lesson study.

Based on an interactive flipped classroom model, 2023 cohort will participate in both synchronous and asynchronous online learning. The synchronous portion will entail participants attending 4 4.5-hour live, online sessions.  Through an asynchronous, self-paced format, participants will complete online activities that supplement the presentations. They will listen to recorded mini-lectures, read relevant research articles, watch and “coach” classroom videos of SIOP lessons, apply what they learn to their coaching plans, and interact with other participants through discussion boards and blog posts. Participants will connect online with CAL facilitators weekly to discuss best practices in SIOP professional development, network with other PD facilitators from schools around the world, and receive small group coaching from a CAL PD coach.

This is the right strand of professional development for those who:

• Have attended a full introductory SIOP workshop and have a strong knowledge base of the SIOP Model
• Have implemented the SIOP Model in their classrooms and/or have a lot of experience supporting teachers who implement the SIOP Model
• Have attended the CAL SIOP Training of Trainers Institute: Foundations or similar school/district based training.
• Are able to identify examples of SIOP implementation, but need more assistance in helping teachers implement with fidelity.
• Are available between January 5th and February 2nd, 2023 to complete approximately 2 hours of self-paced online assignments per week (to include watching videos, reading articles, listening to mini-lectures on SIOP components, and planning for their own PD sessions, etc.).
• Are able to join remote/teleconference sessions on the days and times listed below.
• Note: for the virtual presentation, each participant must have their own device. Multiple individuals on one device will not be accommodated.

Please note: this institute is not intended for those who are learning SIOP for the first time. Contact CAL about SIOP introductory workshops that we can deliver in your schools. Questions? Email CAL with any questions you may have about our offerings.
