I chose these 40 words because they were all from the Dolch word list, which sorts sight words by frequency according to grade level. Using this list, I was able to choose words aimed for my intended grade level. Each word on the list is a word likely to appear in second grade level texts. It will ensure that students get the chance to practice and refer to words that might be challenging for them. Sight words have to be memorized, so the more students are able to see them in the classroom and practice reciting them, the better.

The five ways I plan to use the digital word wall and/or my classroom word wall are:
1. Introduce new words as "mystery words." Show the students the new word scrambled and give them hints as to what it may be, allowing them to guess. This will hopefully make the new words more memorable as students look back to the hints that helped them figure out the word.
2. Begin each major unit with a discussion of the key vocabulary that will be relevant and add those specific words to the wall. As we get to them in context, revisit why they are on the word wall, their definitions, how they are relevant, how they fit into phonemic patterns, etc.
3. Do a "word pictures" activity. Split students into teams and have one student pick a word from the wall and illustrate it however they choose. The rest of the team has to guess the word based on the picture. Depending on the context, teams can keep track of their points and compete against one another. This is especially helpful for ELLs and lower level readers.
4. Have a word wall bingo as a class. Read the definitions of the words they have on their bingo cards and have students mark the corresponding words until someone gets a bingo. Check the words they marked off to get it and ensure the definitions have been said. This could be done several times throughout the school year when new definitions get added.
5. Implement a Word of the Week. This could either be a word already on the wall or a word that is being added, but I would take the week and highlight the word's use in context, as well as discuss it more in depth. Students would practice extra with the word that week, come up with various contexts in which the word would be appropriate, etc.

1. Do display the word wall in an easily accessible place where students are always able to see it.
2. Do consistently refer to the words on it and go over them as a class, by themselves as well as in context.
3. Do include students in the process of choosing which words go on the wall and why.
4. Do incorporate subject-specific content, such as geography, history, and math related words.
5. Do add words gradually as they become relevant and increasing in difficulty rather than adding them all at once.
