Direct Vocabulary Instruction
22
Research Generalizations Vocabula
ry
0
Students need to be exposed to a word at least
six times in context.
Direct vocabulary instruction works and should
focus on words that are critical to new content.
Even superficial instruction in new words
increases the probability that students will
understand the words when they encounter them.
One of the best ways to learn a new word is to
associate a mental image or symbolic
representation with it.
23
0
Step 1
Teacher identifies the new word and elicits
background knowledge.
Step 2
Teacher explains the meaning of the new word.
Step 3
Students generate their own explanations of the
new word.
Step 4
Students create visual representations of the new
word.
Step 5
Students engage in experiences that deepen their
understanding of the new word.
Students engage in vocabulary games and
activities to help them remember the word and its
meaning.
Step 6
24
Teacher identifies the new word and elicits
background knowledge.
Step 1
  • Tap into a students prior knowledge and
    experiences.
  • Ask students if they know the meaning of new
    words.
  • This discussion will help students make
    connections to the new words.

25
Teacher explains the meaning of the new word.
Step 2
  • It is important that students understand what a
    new word means in the context of something they
    are already familiar with or that make sense to
    them.
  • This can be done by
  • -telling students a story
  • -giving them an explanation
  • -providing a description in written or verbal
    form
  • -providing examples or non-examples
  • The goal of this step it to provide students
    with a clear understanding of the meaning of the
    new word quickly and efficiently.

26
Students generate their own explanations of the
new word.
Step 3
  • Use sentence stems or questions to describe the
    meaning of a word.
  • I think this word means
  • We use this word to describe
  • 2. Use tools to learn more about a new word.
  • Dictionaries work best when students have some
    understanding of a word first
  • Thesaurus
  • Internet or Electronic Sources

Income tax is the money we pay to the government
that they use to provide things we all need, like
roads. The money is taken out of our paychecks.

Students create visual representations of the new
word.
Step 4
Creating a visual representation forces students
to process their linguistic understanding into
nonlinguistic representations. Strategies for
