contains 144 daily lessons that easily integrate into any classroom. The structured 10- to 15-minute activities introduce words in a flexible format you can use for morning warm-ups or to keep students engaged during transition times.
includes new additions that help reinforce vocabulary. New weekly oral reviews and written assessments ask students to apply their new words through group discussions, questions in test format, and an open-ended writing prompt.
uses multiple approaches to teach vocabulary. Oral activities provide multiple opportunities to develop word meaning indentifying features that are and are not attributes of the words, making personal connections to the words, and using the words in context while completing several types of exercises. By using and thinking about words in multiple ways, students build a deeper understanding of word meaning that goes beyond surface-level memorization.
