We will be working on developing our vocabulary through the program Wordly Wise. Wordly Wise 3000® provides direct academic vocabulary instruction that develops the critical link between vocabulary and reading comprehension. This program incorporates the use of context clues, word study (Greek and Latin roots, prefixes and suffixes, and synonyms and antonyms), reading comprehension, and writing.
The words chosen for Wordly Wise 3000® were selected to expand critical grade-level vocabulary and improve reading comprehension. The words are mainly high-utility, academic vocabulary and are words that the students will encounter in grade-level literature, content-area reading, and textbooks.
