What is Vocabulary?
"Vocabulary knowledge is knowledge; the knowledge of a word not only implies a definition, but also implies how that word fits into the world." Steven Stahl (2005)
![Page 6: Vocabulary instruction june 24th](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062904/5876fe601a28abf3398b6cc1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What is vocabulary instruction?Instruction in vocabulary involves far more than looking up words in a dictionary and using the words in a sentence. Vocabulary is acquired incidentally through indirect exposure to words and intentionally through explicit instruction in specific words and word-learning strategies
![Page 7: Vocabulary instruction june 24th](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062904/5876fe601a28abf3398b6cc1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
There are several effective explicit (intentional, planned instruction) and implicit (spontaneous instruction as a child comes to new words in a text) strategies that adults can employ with readers of any age.Four components of an effective vocabulary program (*):• Wide or extensive independent reading
to expand word knowledge.• Instruction in specific words to enhance
comprehension of texts containing those words.
• Instruction in independent word-learning strategies, and
• word consciousness and word-play activities to motivate and enhance learning.

Expanding word knowledge* Vocabulary Paint Chips!
STRATEGIES
INTELLIGENT
smartcleveragile
The strategy involves using large paint strips or chips from the hardware store. Teachers write a vocabulary word on one color of the strip, then write different "versions" of the word on the other colors, and finally, put synonyms on one of the colors. For example, one paint chip may include illuminate, illumination, illuminating, and the synonyms enlighten and brighten. https://www.teachingchannel.org/videos/build-student-vocabulary

* Semantic GradientsSemantic gradients are a way to broaden and deepen students' understanding of related words.

Instruction in speficic words
Repeated Exposure to Words
Providing multiple opportunities to use a new word in its written and spoken form helps children solidify their understanding of it.It may seem common sense that the more times we are exposed to a word, the stronger our understanding becomes.

Keyword MethodIn this method, unfamiliar words are introduced prior to reading. However, rather than encouraging the child to remember a definition for a new word, the adult teaches him a “word clue” to help him understand it.
Let’s try! “A Little Boy”

Word Maps
The word map is an excellent method for scaffolding a child’s vocabulary learning. Like the other explicit instructional methods, for each of these new vocabulary words, the child (with the support of the adult) creates a graphic organizer for the word.
Branching off the word are three categories: classification (what class or group does the word belong to), qualities (what is the word like) and examples. Using prior knowledge the child fills in each of these three categories

Have students use media to express vocabulary knowledge: * A multimedia composing and presentation tool that is often underused is PowerPoint.

Activities• 1. Hidden Spelling Words• 2. Tic-Tac-Toe Spelling• 3. Spelling Race• 4. Flip Card• 5. Hidden spelling word• 6. Word search

Hidden Spelling Words
On a white piece of paper let your child write out the spelling words using a white crayon. Once all words have been written use watercolors and paint to make hidden words appear.

Tic-Tac-Toe Spelling1. Divide class into two teams, Team X and Team O2. Draw a large tic-tac-toe grid on the board but within reach of the students' arms.3. Call on student from one team. Have them spell a word (just like a Spelling Bee).4. If the student spells the word correctly, they get to put an X or O (depending on the team their on) on the grid.5. If the student spells the word incorrectly, then they lose their chance.6. A player from the second team takes a turn. Repeat #4 and #5.7. The team that gets tic-tac-toe wins!

Spot the vocabulary
You will need a picture (this could be an illustration from a book, from the web, a photo, even your own sketch!) that depicts 'things' on a particular theme which your students have recently learnt (ex: furniture/ food/ in the classroom).
