Our knowledge is dependent on education and the context in which we use them. We also have to consider the amount of words in our language and which words are considered an actual word. Data indicates that ELL learners will be behind 1,000 words or more than your average English Language Learner. Teachers should consider the receptive language (understanding of the meaning of word) when working with ELLs. Teaching high-frequency words is the starting point to working with ELLs. Once achieved, focusing on low-frequency words, subject related words and and technical vocabulary is necessary. ]]> 2021-08-13 16:22:48 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678372507 natalie_winter1 https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678399874 Some ways teachers can help scaffold vocabulary development is through the following: shared reading, small group intervention, word charts, cloze sentences, making inferences, word analysis, and using dictionaries or other word reference resources. Each of these strategies can hep focus on key word development and understanding of how it is used in the English Language. ]]> 2021-08-13 16:45:11 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678399874 natalie_winter1 https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678400436 Prior to instilling all these strategies, word assessments and base line data needs to be collected in order for the teacher to know where to start with the programming. ]]> 2021-08-13 16:45:36 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678400436 natalie_winter1 https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678400888 Instilling the love of reading is also crucial when trying to build on vocabulary development and interest. This is where knowing your students interests can be useful as provide different types of genres and texts for them to explore will be key in their development. ]]> 2021-08-13 16:45:58 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678400888 natalie_winter1 https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678401445 This article was interesting to read and I appreciated reviewing a lot of the vocabulary strategies that can be implemented. I think as educators we need to be up to date on how to provide effective instruction and if there is an area (i.e., shared reading) that a teacher is not as savvy in, learning more PD on this particular area will be beneficial to the growth of not only the educator but the ELL student he or she may be supporting. ]]> 2021-08-13 16:46:26 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_winter1/ix5g279qbh3cg9a9/wish/1678401445
