You will find everything you need to actively engage your kids
in word play and exploration to develop vocabulary and word
analysis skills as students seek to discover what the "big word"
of the week is. Suggestions are provided for a five day routine.
I use a list each week for the whole school year. With
consistent reinforcement, your students will LOVE words and
become vocabulary wizards! These lessons are great for
reinforcing use of context clues, multisyllabic word decoding,
and reading fluency. Rather than using verbal cues, I have
created written clues for students to decipher in small groups
while I work with another small group. The INDESTRUCTIBLE list
can be used to reinforce: *prefix re- & in- *suffix -ible, -er,
& -est * roots struct and cred Included are ten pages: Page 1-4:
