Description
Hundreds of thousands of teachers have used this highly practical guide to help K-12 students enlarge their vocabulary and get involved in noticing, understanding, and using new words. Grounded in research, the book explains how to select words for instruction, introduce their meanings, and create engaging learning activities that promote both word knowledge and reading comprehension. The authors are trusted experts who draw on extensive experience in diverse classrooms and schools. Sample lessons and vignettes, childrens literature suggestions, end-of-chapter summaries, and Your Turn learning activities enhance the books utility as a classroom resource, professional development tool, or course text. An online-only Study Guide (www.guilford.com/beck-studyguide) can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size.
