Veteran educator Marilee Sprenger explains how to teach the
essential, high-frequency words that appear in academic
contexts—and reverse the disadvantages of what she calls ""word
poverty."" Drawing on research and experience, Sprenger provides a
rich array of engaging strategies to help educators across all
content areas and grade levels not only teach students a large
quantity of words but also ensure that they know these words well.
You'll find: An overview of how the brain learns and retains new
words, including the three stages of building long-term memories:
encoding, storage, and retrieval. Encoding strategies to introduce
words in novel ways and jump-start the memory process. Rehearsal
strategies to help students put words into long-term storage.
Review strategies to help students strengthen their retrieval
skills and gain the automaticity needed for reading comprehension.
Ways to address planning and assessment as crucial, intersecting
supports of a robust vocabulary program. This comprehensive
resource has everything you need to help your students profoundly
expand their vocabulary, enabling them to speak, read, and write
with greater understanding and confidence.
