805 Words4 Pages

Slide 1

Vocabulary instruction is very important in reading and reading comprehension and as a teacher, there will be dedicated time and activities devoted to vocabulary instruction. By increasing a student's vocabulary knowledge, you improve their reading, reading fluency, and their reading comprehension, not to mention their knowledge of words and ability to communicate.

To implement vocabulary instruction I will:
Focus the appropriate amount of time on tier 1, tier 2, and tier three vocabulary words during small group and whole class instruction.
Review unknown vocabulary with students before reading aloud to the class or completing an activity with students.
Implement explicit methods of teaching vocabulary with students, such as providing …show more content…

While students may not be able to read the text yet, they are exploring the pictures and making assumptions on what text could be saying. They are using the pictures to make predictions and becoming more print aware in the process. By reading to students, reading skills will continue to develop along with their vocabulary.

To implement reading, reading to students, and book exploring I will:
Give time for students to read early reader books during reading and free time.
Have a specific time for students to read and explore books in the classroom and reflect on the book as well through writing or recording their thoughts and opinions. Independent reading can happen even at age four.
Read to students every day and give students a chance to explore the books that we read as a whole class during independent reading time.

Slide 3

How students are grouped and matching their reading level to students with like abilities will be important during small group instruction and in meeting the needs of individual students. When students are grouped appropriately, small group instruction can target that group of students reading needs. This will allow me to tailor instruction to the student's needs, which strengthen their current skills and challenge them when they are ready. Working in small group instruction will also allow me to assess how students are progressing with their …show more content…

Specifically, in preschool or kindergarten, students are working to build their phonetic awareness, becoming more print aware, and developing their abilities in writing. At this age, students are working to discover what the author is telling them with the text, make predictions about the text, and beginning to use text features and pictures in the text to help with reading the text.

in question allows the student to become familiar with the word, the object it refers to, and its pronunciation. In the past, I have seen some vocabulary terms also written on the board (sometimes with a drawing of the object the word refers to). This also allows students to know how the word is spelt. I 'm not sure if the majority of these words can be taught in the traditional, academic sense of "explicitly teaching" it. The seven steps of teaching vocabulary terms we learned may not be as applicable in this classroom.

What Content-Area Teachers Should Know About Adolescent Literacy

949 Words | 4 Pages

According to Nagy (1998), in the article “Teaching Vocabulary to Improve Reading Comprehension,” in order to produce vocabulary growth what is needed is “more reading” and “not more vocabulary instruction” (Bintz, 2011, p. 3). Moreover, a major tenet of vocabulary development is that vocabulary is better produced through a context-dependent activity (such as reading, where the vocabulary is learned and engaged in context) rather than traditional methods of directly teaching vocabulary terms and definitions in isolation of a context. However, as the National Institute of Literacy (2007) acknowledges in What Content-Area Teachers Should Know About Adolescent Literacy, there is “not a single best way to teach vocabulary...rather a variety of techniques

Sheltered English Language Reflection

Drucker Reflection After having taken the Sheltered English Immersion course this past summer, much of the information that was presented in this article was a review for me. However, there was some information that I found to be interesting and will now look upon my current instruction to see if I should correct my strategies. One area in particular that I find to be essential for literacy instruction with intermediate English Language Learners is developing vocabulary. For example, one point that I found interesting was the integration of vocabulary with instruction rather than just pre-teaching vocabulary. This seems contrary to was I was told in my SEI course as we learned about the Seven-Step Process and Illustrated Dictionaries as strategies to teach vocabulary.

Constrained Skills In Early Childhood

2796 Words | 12 Pages

Constrained skills are the quickest to develop and master, such as decoding, fluency, and word recognition (Kintsch, 2004; Paris & Hamilton, 2009). As children acquire and become automatic in these reading skills, these constrained skills aid the child in a smooth transition to the later stages of reading development where there is a heavy focus on unconstrained skills. Unconstrained skills such as comprehension, vocabulary, and composition, continually develop over time making them much more complex with uncertainties of when or how they become automatic (Kamhi, 2009;

The Pros And Cons Of Early Reading Instruction

754 Words | 4 Pages

Extensive research has informed the teaching of reading with ‘great debates’ (ref) providing opposing views either reading as a whole text (analytical) or as teaching decoding of individual words (synthesising) as a skill to reading – phonics. Whilst the two approaches both need the child to have a phonological awareness – ‘the ability to perceive, recall and manipulate sounds and specifically within language’ (Jolliffe et al, 2015, p. 2) the analytical approach to reading involves the pupils inferring the identity of the new word through the recognition of the letters at the beginning and end of the word which can be supported through clues from the remainder of the sentence or through pictorial representations – a word to part strategy.

They might discuss the pictures and illustrations with the children in that groups and ask the students questions, such as what they think the book will be about. The teacher then needs to go through the book with the students, as they open to the first page and begin to read individually out loud but all at the same time. After they read you can continue to ask them questions about the previous text they just read or discuss with them the languages used. For example, if there are exclamation marks in the text, the educator explains why it is there and what it is used for. It is then a good idea to ask them to read it again, this time expressing that there is an exclamation mark present, for this they might use a high volume.
