Do you spend hours creating word lists and weekly vocabulary tests
only to find that your students have "forgotten" the words by the
following week? Janet Allen and her students were frustrated with
the same problem. Words, Words, Words describes the research that
changed the way she and many other teachers teach vocabulary. It
offers educators practical, research-based solutions for helping
students fall into new language, learn new words, and begin to use
those words in their speaking and writing lives. This book offers
teachers detailed strategy lessons in the following areas:
activating and building background word knowledge; making word
learning meaningful and lasting; building concept knowledge; using
word and structural analysis to create meaning; using context as a
text support; making reading the heart of vocabulary instruction.
Words, Words, Words provides educators with a strong research base,
detailed classroom-based lessons, and graphic organizers to support
the strategy lessons. At a time when teachers are struggling to
meet content standards in reading across the curriculum, this book
offers some practical solutions for meeting those standards in ways
that are meaningful and lasting.
