Vocabulary Strategies

    This activity builds upon the Proficiency Level Analysis assignment from Topic 3. You will use the groups that you created in that topic for this assignment. Select a passage appropriate for seventh grade students to utilize within this assignment. Create a 5-8 slide PowerPoint that could be used to demonstrate vocabulary strategies to your colleagues. Your PowerPoint should include the following: Key vocabulary that you would pre-teach the students in Ms. Jensen’s class; One strategy you would use to pre-teach this vocabulary to this group of students; and One strategy to practice this vocabulary later in the lesson. In addition, include a reference slide with 3-5 references from the required readings or other sources to support the reasons for choosing these strategies.
