CONTENT: The Word Builder strategy is a simple way to teach and build morphemic analysis and vocabulary knowledge and skills. This strategy directly explains the meanings of words along with thought-provoking, playful and interactive follow-up. Teaching students to use word parts (root, prefix and suffix) to figure out the meanings of words in text can be beneficial to their vocabulary and spelling development.

GRADE LEVEL: K-6

CURRICULUM STANDARDS: LA.K.3.4.1: The student will edit for correct use of knowledge of letter/sound relationships to spell simple words.LA.1.3.4.1: The student will edit for correct use of common spelling patterns (e.g., onset and rimes, word families, and simple CVC words) and conventional spelling of high frequency words.LA.2.3.4.1: The student will edit for correct use of conventional spelling for high frequency words and common spelling patterns and generalizations (e.g., word families, simple CVC words, regular plurals, simple suffixes and simple prefixes) to determine how to spell new words.LA.3.3.4.1: The student will edit for correct use of spelling, using spelling patterns and generalizations (e.g., word families, diphthongs, consonant digraphs, CVC words, CCVC words, CVCC words and affixes) and using a dictionary or other resources as necessary.LA.4.3.4.1: The student will edit for correct use of spelling, using spelling rules, orthographic patterns, and generalizations (e.g., r-controlled, diphthongs, consonant digraphs, vowel digraphs, silent e, plural for words ending in y, doubling final consonant, i before e, irregular plurals, CVC words, CCVC words, CVCC words, affixes) and using a dictionary, thesaurus, or other resources as necessary.LA.5.3.4.1: The student will edit for correct use of spelling, using spelling rules, orthographic patterns, generalizations, knowledge of root words, prefixes, suffixes, and knowledge of Greek and Latin root words and using a dictionary, thesaurus, or other resources as necessary.LA.6.3.4.1: The student will edit for correct use of spelling, using spelling rules, orthographic patterns, generalizations, knowledge of root words, prefixes, suffixes, and knowledge of Greek and Latin root words and using a dictionary, thesaurus, or other resources as necessary.

DESCRIPTION OF PRACTICES: Take a root of a word and see how many other words students can come up with by adding suffixes and prefixes. Or you can also group students and have them play a word game with a given set of letters. Word building is a flexible strategy that can be used in multiple ways. Model explicitly and provide practice and support. Show students how they can problem-solve with words using this strategy. An example might be done with the word sun. You can add different suffixes or prefixes and change the word into sunny, sunless, and sunbath. Or using the endings -ip, -ill, -ir have students come up with a list of words (sip, ship, whip, lip, chill, dill, pill, sir, heir, etc.) Take time to discuss the meaning of words with your students.Word builder is a strategy that can be implemented in all types of service delivery models.

CONTENT: A Word Wall is a strategy used to reinforce new vocabulary or to reinforce the spelling of a set of words. Teachers select new words, technical terms, and words that frequently recur and print these words in bold block letters on cards. Teachers post these cards on a visible wall or bulletin board. The Word Wall is built one word at a time as students encounter new terms. Students review the terms on the Word Wall before lessons. Every time one of the words appears in the lesson, the teacher reinforces it by pointing it out on the Word Wall. Repetition is the key to the Word Wall's success. Students can also create their personal Word Wall that includes new vocabulary or words with complex spelling patterns.

DESCRIPTION OF PRACTICES: Identify the key vocabulary words that students need to know for a specific topic or reading assignment or vocabulary words the student is having trouble spelling. Print the words in large block letters on index cards and post them on a wall or bulletin board. Add pictures to the cards to assist ESOL students.Post the word cards as the terms come up in the discussion or reading. Regularly review the terms on the Word Wall. Have students read them aloud or spell them out as a warm-up exercise. Frequently call on students to refresh their memories of the definitions or spelling patterns of these words. Reinforce these vocabulary words by including them in learning games and activities.Word wall is a strategy that can be implemented in all types of service delivery models.
