Language changes as people grow and learn, as they move from place to place, or as they learn
words for new inventions. Language can also make changes happen, because people learn, think, and feel new things sometimes because of what they hear or read. How has language changed for you
and your family over time?

Tier 1 words The most basic words and are the ones that are
reasonably easy to teach, usually because there is some kind of physical referent (blue, elbow, table, run). We need to spend time on them because they show up
frequently and students need to know these words. It is not necessary to spend more time than is required,
though, because they are easier to teach than the other two tiers.

Tier 2 words The mother lode of words. These are the high
frequency words that are found and used across domains. Spending time teaching these words deeply, richly, powerfully....that is worth the effort. Knowing
these words will have an impact on students' learning and communication throughout their lives. Words that
could be considered Tier 2 words would include: difference, temperate, omnivore, exaggerate, erode.
You can see that these are words that may have particular meanings in certain content areas, but they
are used in a variety of ways by mature language users.
RD:50 Schoenfelder
Tier 3 words
The words that are much lower frequency words and that are very specific to one domain, usually. For
example; oligopoly, marcato, lithosphere, couplet, univariate analysis. These are important words, but
need to be taught within the context and subject area where they will be used.
