ワードウォリアーズ：読書と執筆の成功のための語彙（3～4年生）

In this class, we will be covering a wide range of 3rd-4th grade vocabulary words through different mini-lessons and activities.

Some of these mini-lessons/ activities include: 
Phonics Focus
Vocabulary Mapping
Frayer Model 
Vocabulary Matrix
Vocabulary Tree
Vocabulary Coding
Categorizing
Word Part (prefix, roots, suffixes) Games
Word Scavenger Hunt
Mini-Informal Assessments: Vocabulary Charades, Context and Illustrations

Naturally, we will conquer these words with some resources to aid us! Students are encouraged to have a physical dictionary and thesaurus, but we definitely be using online versions as well that I will show on the screen.  
I encourage students to bring their background knowledge to the class and want to get their input about a word before we diving into it. This includes a students knowledge of other languages! Multilingual learners have a lot to share since languages do share words and words parts.
