We know that teaching vocabulary is crucial for students to comprehend texts, but the importance of expanding students' vocabulary goes far beyond understanding what they are reading in the classroom. Vocabulary in elementary education not only impacts comprehension but also how students engage with and understand the world.
Explicitly teaching vocabulary is incredibly beneficial and effective in expanding students' vocabulary. In this episode, I am breaking down what vocabulary is, the importance of explicitly teaching vocabulary, the research behind vocabulary instruction, and strategies you can implement to improve student vocabulary.
Next week, we'll be wrapping up the "Fab 5 Components of Literacy," where we'll be talking all about comprehension.
