Description

Having vocabulary activities at your finger tips is essential for teachers. We know that vocabulary development is critical to reading comprehension. With this one bundle, you have over 45 activities to choose in PDF AND in Digital for Google Slides from that are perfect for grades 2 through 5. You can use them all with ANY WORD LIST you have offering a great variety all year long. Print on bright paper for a polished look too.

HOW TEACHERS CAN INCLUDE THESE VOCABULARY ACTIVITIES WITH ANY LESSON:

The classroom teacher can pick and choose from the activities what best fits the lesson objectives. They work well with language arts lessons of course, but you can also use these in the content areas as well. I would suggest preselecting the Tier 2 words that you'll be addressing from the text and through class discussion, develop kid-friendly definitions. Additionally, kids need a minimum of 15 usage opportunities for words to "stick", so use discussion, usage in writing, posting to your WOW word wall or word of the day boards, and in no time, your students will truly know the words.
