Using the Book Where would we be without words? It’s hard to imagine. Words are a basic building block of communication, and a strong vocabulary is an essential part of reading, writing, and speaking well. The purpose of this book is to help young learners expand the number of words they know and the ways in which they use them. Although 240 vocabulary words are introduced, many more words and meanings are woven into the book’s 24 lessons. Learning new words is not just about encountering them; it’s about using, exploring, and thinking about them. So the lessons in this book are organized around different aspects and attributes of words— opposites (antonyms), describing words (adjectives), action words (verbs), homophones, compound words, key content area vocabulary, and more.

Tips • You’ll find a complete alphabetized list of all the lesson words on page 78. • As you introduce the lessons, have the following items available: beginning dictionaries and thesauruses, and writing notebooks or journals in which students can record words and use them in sentences.

Lesson Organization Each lesson includes three parts and introduces ten words. The first lesson part includes:

Tips for Using the Lessons

•

onsider having students fill C out “Word Inventory Sheets” before each lesson. The headings for such a sheet might be: Words I Know, Words I Have Seen but Don’t Really Know; New Words. Students can list the vocabulary words and probable meanings under the headings. As the lesson proceeds they can make revisions and additions.

• Each page in every three-part

lesson uses all ten vocabulary words. The exercises on most of the pages use each vocabulary word once. Encourage students to think about the best word to complete a sentence or to answer each question.

• Some words have more than

one meaning, including some not given in the lesson. You may want to point out additional meanings or invite students to discover them independently.

• Consider having students make a set of word cards for each lesson, or make a class set and place it in your writing center.

• Use the vocabulary to

teach related spelling and grammar rules.

• Have students illustrate 240 Vocabulary Words Kids Need to Know: Grade 1 © 2012 by Scholastic Inc.

some words.

• Encourage students to make

semantic maps for some words. For instance, they might create a map for a noun to show what the word is, and what it is like and not like.

• Help students make

connections by pointing out lesson words used in other contexts and materials.

• Add your own writing

assignments. The more students use a word, the more likely they are to “own” it.
