In this class the instructor follows a variation of a research-based (Marzano) five-step process for teaching vocabulary: STEP 1: Teacher introduces the new vocabulary word and presents it in a sentence. Students use clues from the context to determine its definition. STEP 2: Teacher shares definition(s) of the word. STEP 3: Students explain the new vocabulary word in their own words. STEP 4: Class creates a drawing or picture to represent the word, and come up with synonyms and antonyms. STEP 5: Students participate in activities, games, and opportunities to expand their knowledge of the word and discuss it with others.

Supply List
