Mrs. Koch was back in our room this week with another great vocabulary strategy. This week we worked on root words, prefixes and suffixes. The kids had to read passages and try to figure out the unknown bold print words. Not only were they using their knowledge of word parts, but I heard some of them using and discussing context clues! YES!!!
These strategies will be so helpful to the kids as they read harder materials and find words they do not know! We have been focusing SO hard on vocabulary...ask them about our new journals! That will be my next post :)
I couldn't get my pictures to load, I'll try again on the next post! Have a great weekend!
