Word Study

Vocabulary instruction is important. Like so important. Why? Well, our students are constantly being exposed to new words every single day. Elementary students should be adding anywhere from 2,000 - 3,000 new words to their vocabularies every year! That is a huge number of new words to learn. And if we really want to make all of those new vocabulary words stick with them, then we need to make sure that we are effectively teaching our students skills and strategies that will help them improve and grow their vocabularies. Check out these episodes to learn all the ways you can boost your vocabulary instruction.
