The Vocabulary Book
Learning & Instruction
Michael F. Graves
Invaluable and highly recommended.
— Midwest Book Review
This book presents a comprehensive plan for vocabulary instruction from kindergarten through high school—a plan broad enough for students with small or with exceptional vocabularies, and every child in between.
Written by one of the top experts in the field, The Vocabulary Books offers a research-based program with plenty of classroom examples and strategies that teachers can use. You'll get sound advice and models of exemplary instruction as well as portraits of comprehensive vocabulary programs in primary, elementary, middle, and high school classrooms.
Use this book's four-part vocabulary curriculum to provide your students with rich and varied language experiences, to teach individual words and word-learning strategies, and to foster word consciousness.
