Book Description
This project addressed the problem of deficient vocabulary instruction in the middle and high school grades. This deficiency is mostly caused because content-area teachers tend to focus more on content and not reading comprehension and vocabulary skills. This project aimed to provide content-area teachers the opportunity to read the research on both the importance of vocabulary instruction and effective strategies to teach academic language in content area classrooms. The research provided evidence of the dangers of limited vocabulary development in early childhood. The research pointed at the vocabulary gap theory that framed the discussion of my project. Additionally, the research proved the strong relationship between reading comprehension and vocabulary knowledge. Therefore, the research developed the premise of this project, a curriculum supplement for secondary Social Studies classrooms that is founded in research and proven effective strategies. The curriculum guide provides a user-friendly option to supplement existing curriculum with research-proven explanations and strategies that work for a wide-range of teaching scenarios. Each lesson and unit is focused on primary source readings that discuss important, standards-based topics and walk the teacher through word selection, before, during and after reading activities. This project adds to the existing literature regarding the need for increased vocabulary development. Like the literature discussed, I believe that with concentrated, thoughtful instruction of vocabulary in both incidental and explicit manners, students who are struggling with word knowledge and consequently reading comprehension, will improve their literacy. One of the best ways to achieve this goal is to develop mini-lessons in a thematic manner that incorporates effective reading and vocabulary strategies. This project has developed such a supplement that can be used by a secondary level Social Studies teacher or any teacher who wishes to use it as a model for their own practice.

Book Description
Building on Michael Graves's bestseller, The Vocabulary Book, this new resource offers a comprehensive plan for vocabulary instruction that K–12 teachers can use with English language learners. It is broad enough to include instruction for students who are just beginning to build their English vocabularies, as well as for students whose English vocabularies are approaching those of native speakers. The authors describe a four-pronged program that follows these key components: providing rich and varied language experiences; teaching individual words; teaching word learning strategies; and fostering word consciousness. This user-friendly book integrates up-to-date research on best practices into each chapter and includes vignettes, classroom activities, sample lessons, a list of children's literature, and more.

Book Description
In Building Academic Vocabulary: Teacher s Manual, Robert J. Marzano and Debra J. Pickering give teachers a practical way to help students master academic vocabulary. Research has shown that when teachers, schools, and districts take a systematic approach to helping students identify and master essential vocabulary and concepts of a given subject area, student comprehension and achievement rises. In the manual, readers will find the following tools: * A method to help teachers, schools, and districts determine which academic vocabulary terms are most essential for their needs * A six-step process for direct instruction in subject area vocabulary * A how-to to help students use the Building Academic Vocabulary: Student Notebook. The six-step method encourages students to learn critical academic vocabulary by connecting these terms to prior knowledge using linguistic and non-linguistic means that further encourage the refinement and deepening of their understanding. * Suggestions for tailoring academic vocabulary procedures for English Language Learners. * Samples and blackline masters for a variety of review activities and games that reinforce and refine student understanding of the academic terms and concepts they learn. The book also includes a list of 7, 923 vocabulary terms culled from the national standards documents and other publications, organized into 11 subject areas and 4 grade-level categories. Building Academic Vocabulary: Teacher s Manual puts into practice the research and ideas outlined in Marzano s previous book Building Background Knowledge for Academic Achievement. Using the teacher s manual and vocabulary notebooks, educators can guide students in using tools and activities that will help them deepen their own understanding of critical academic vocabulary--the building blocks for achievement in each discipline.
