Video #28 - Vocabulary Acquisition

Students are exposed to approximately 88,500 words before Secondary School graduation. These words are divided into three tiers: Words students can pick up in conversation, Words that have academic rigor but are generalized, and Words that are Subject and Content Specific. In order to help students acquire meaning for all these words, a six step approach is the best.
1) Provide a definition
2) Students restate the defintion in their own words
3) Students draw a picture of the word that helps them remember
4) Students use the word in assigned activities
5) Students discuss the term with their peers
6) Students play games with the term(s) in a non-pressure environment
