Mr. Slider closed out the session today by teaching us an activity that we could use with our students to help them better understand academic vocabulary. He gave us a packet consisting of Marzano’s Six Steps to helping students better understand vocabulary. Included in the packet were many, many graphic organizers that could be used with our students as well. This was great because many of the graphic organizers could be used across content. I was pleased to get these resources today because I plan to work harder this upcoming school year to use various strategies to help my students read more effectively. I plan to try the “One Word” activity as a partner activity.
Nice work with the camera, Sherry!
