Wordly Wise 9학년 1부로 현명해지세요

In this small group learning setting, the students will greatly improve their reading comprehension by increasing their vocabulary base by learning the vocabulary words from Wordly Wise 3000 Grade nine, part one. This twenty-week course is the teaching of the first half of the grade nine book. You need to have edition four.   There are fifteen words in each lesson in the book. Each week we will cover the first part of one lesson.  The words will be explained by the teacher, using colorful and interesting slides with an example sentence. Each word has a colorful slide to help students understand the meaning of the word.   A discussion of each word will be given, including the different parts of speech of each word.  Practice will be provided by using five approaches: finding the meaning using whatever part of speech, using context clues to find just the right word in the sentence, applying the meaning of the word, using the correct form of the word, then reading a narrative using the fifteen words in the lesson.  Each lesson includes a nonfiction narrative of high interest.  My learning style is informal with lots of student interaction. We end day two of the week with an exciting Kahoot quiz!  Kahoot Quizes is a third-party media that is approved by Outschool for use during the lessons.  These quizzes are questions based on the fifteen vocabulary words covered in each of the ten lessons.
