This session shows teachers how to strategically select and teach two to seven new words from words already embedded in any lesson. Then we model nine vocabulary strategies, including Multiple-Meaning Words, Synonyms, Homophones, Word Morphology, and Contextualized Definitions. Teachers will practice the strategies in groups at their tables.
