Description
This important webinar provides proven- effective, practical, and explicit vocabulary building strategies across all content based curriculum. Participants will be learning how to choose the right kinds of vocabulary words, with interactive tasks such as practicing selecting target vocabulary from text. The importance of Tier 2 type vocabulary words will be highlighted. Specific techniques for introducing, practicing, and carrying over use of learned vocabulary words will be demonstrated. Sight words will also be discussed, highlighting the impact of these frequently used, and often difficult to learn, vocabulary words, with proven strategies for improving skill in this area. Moving onto morphology, an often underused, but important layer of literacy and language instruction, we will be discussing the Anglo-Saxon, Latin and Greek foundations of the English language. Participants will learn how to use research based structural analysis techniques, working with morphemes (meaningful prefixes, roots, and suffixes) at different grade levels, and tying in curriculum, to improve vocabulary development as well as word reading and spelling. Special strategies for teaching reading and spelling of morphemes, recognizing and isolating of them in words, manipulating these meaningful word parts in words, and using them to glean meanings of words will be presented. JoAnn will also demonstrate practical and effective methods of building vocabulary developed by industry experts such as Isabella Beck, Anita Archer, and Robert Marzano. Webinar attendees will be able to explore several websites and free resources that can assist them in implementing overall vocabulary instruction strategies.
