Each day, students in my classroom work on building word knowledge. Students will use child-centered dictionaries to find vocabulary words and spelling words and break down the meaning of each word. Students will expand their knowledge base related to each given word. They will dig further into the dictionary as the year progresses and the students will "excavate" the knowledge they learn from the dictionary! They will apply it to their work and their daily writing! The students will greatly increase their understanding of words through definitions. Students are fascinated with the information held inside a Scholastic Children's Dictionary! Let's get started!
