Evaluate the drafted changes
Lead

I enjoyed how you updated the lead. The lead does contain an introductory sentence the describe what the topic is covering, in your case, sheltered instruction. The lead is concise and contains the dual goals of sheltered instructions. Overall, the lead is brief and to the point which will allow leaders to effectively grasp what the article is about.

Content The content you added is relevant to the article and up to date. Adding a little bit of history to the article is important for readers to have a brief background of sheltered instruction. Did Stephen Krashen credit the developments of sheltered instruction? I recommend adding more information, including but limited to, research and even cultural relevance. Are there studies or success stories about these strategies that are being implemented?

Tone and Balance

The tone of the article appears informative with a neutral tone. The article provides a balanced overview of sheltered instruction.

Can this come off a little bias? "Many ELLs are also refugees", thus sheltered instruction can be one of the useful strategies for their instruction. The teacher should "speak more clearly and slowly", use more graphics and similar "multimodal" instructional tools, and speak using shorter "sentences and clauses."

Sources and References

I noticed that you added up to date references. The sources in the article are from 2017, which are pretty current. I checked some sources and they are reliable.

Organizations

The article is very concise and clear. It is also easy to read. There aren't any spelling errors and very few grammatical errors. My advice to you is read the article out loud and you may catch the errors! The sections are broken down properly.

Images and Media

The article doesn't contain any images. Are you going to consider changing that? Images an article can make an article appealing even if readers aren't interested. Perhaps you can show images of The Sheltered Instruction Observational Protocol (SIOP).

Overall Impressions

The article is very brief and to the point which makes reading it very smooth. Sometimes a lack of content means that some topics are not addressed and there are questions readers have that are unanswered. Are there studies that show that sheltered instructions work better then other methods? From all the strategies mentioned is there a specific strategy that is used more? Adding any researching or findings to support the effectiveness of sheltered instruction will help readers gain a better understanding of why this is important. Happy editing! :)
