Complimentary Seat | Vocabulary Science of Virtual Workshop
Designed to build the one thing researchers agree is vital to reading success; teacher knowledge.
Teachers will learn the science behind vocabulary acquisition, research-based vocabulary approaches, best practice instructional strategies, and the importance of vocabulary to overall reading comprehension and fluency.
Join us as we explore and clarify:
- The impact of vocabulary on reading, writing and oral expression
- What researchers know are the ideal conditions for learning new vocabulary
- What we can do to bring the ideal learning conditions into the classroom and teach the right words.
We will work to answer these questions:
- What is it to know a word?
- How many words do kids need to know?
- By when do they need to know them?
- What factors need to be in place for students to learn many words on their own?
- Which words will they learn on their own?
- Which words do we need to teach them?
- What is the best way to teach them?
- Do we have to teach different words in different ways?
- What has traditionally been done?
- How can we use research to create more efficient, practical, and accessible instruction?
