Why is Academic Vocabulary important
According to Marzano (2005) the strongest action a teacher can take to ensure that students have the academic background knowledge to understand the content they will encounter is providing them with direct instruction in these terms When students understand these terms it is easier for them to understand the information they will read and hear in class

Impact of direct instructionhellip
bull Research shows a student in the 50th percentile in terms of ability to comprehend the subject matter taught in school with no direct vocabulary instruction scores in the
50th percentile ranking The same student after specific content-area terms have been taught in a specific way raises hisher comprehension ability to the 83rd percentile

Marzanorsquos 6 Steps to Vocabulary Instructionbull shown to be highly effective
bull This strategy works at every grade level from kindergarten to high school
It provides multiple exposures to a word in a variety of contexts and is most effective when all the steps are used Employing the whole process promotes
student achievement much more effectively than using any step individually

Marzanorsquos Six Step Strategy for Academic Vocabulary Instruction (First 3 steps ndash introduce and develop initial understanding)
1 Provide a description explanation or example of the new term
2 Ask students to restate the description or explanation in their own words (The results are not as strong when students copy the teacherrsquos explanation instead of generating their own)
3 Ask students to construct a picture pictograph or symbolic representation of the term (This step is crucial When students do this step well achievement soars)
Steps 1-3 ensure that the term is introduced and that the students have developed an initial understanding of it
11
(Last 3 steps ndash Shape and sharpen understanding)
4 Engage students in activities that help them add to their knowledge of the terms in vocabulary notebooks (This step should be done every other week ndash alternate with Step Five)
5 Ask students to discuss the terms with one another (This step should be completed every other week ndash alternate with
Step Four)
6 Involve students in games that enable them to play with the terms Games engage students at a high level and have a powerful effect on recall
(This step should be done once a week)
Steps 4-6 ensure that students have multiple exposures and
experiences with the terms over time to help deepen their understanding

Checking in on Student Progress (formative assessment)
Level 4 I understand even more about the term than when I was taught
Level 3 I understand the term and Irsquom not confused about any part of what it means
Level 2 Irsquom a little uncertain about what the term means but I have a general idea
Level 1 Irsquom very uncertain about the term I really donrsquot understand what it means
16
Things to ponderhellip
How do I provide rich and varied language experiences that support learning and using vocabulary
Do I spend time to teach individual words
What type of word-learning strategies have I taught to my students to help them increase their vocabularies
In what ways do I develop word consciousness How does the culture of my classroom show a motivation and appreciation for word learning in what ways do I support and encourage students in making a commitment to acquiring word knowledge and do I share my own thirst for learning new words

The Journeyhellip
Each fall monarch butterflies in Maine beginan unbelievable journey to a hilltop in MexicoHow do they do it They focus on the goalnot the difficulties Each day they take theirbearings and set off allowing their instinctsand desire to steer them They accept whatcomes some winds blow them off courseothers speed them along They keep flyinguntil one day they arrive
Monarch butterflies are the only insect that migrates to a warmer climate that is 2500 miles away each year

Marzanorsquos Six Step Strategy for Academic Vocabulary Instruction (First 3 steps ndash introduce and develop initial understanding)
1 Provide a description explanation or example of the new term
2 Ask students to restate the description or explanation in their own words (The results are not as strong when students copy the teacherrsquos explanation instead of generating their own)
3 Ask students to construct a picture pictograph or symbolic representation of the term (This step is crucial When students do this step well achievement soars)
Steps 1-3 ensure that the term is introduced and that the students have developed an initial understanding of it
11
(Last 3 steps ndash Shape and sharpen understanding)
4 Engage students in activities that help them add to their knowledge of the terms in vocabulary notebooks (This step should be done every other week ndash alternate with Step Five)
5 Ask students to discuss the terms with one another (This step should be completed every other week ndash alternate with
Step Four)
6 Involve students in games that enable them to play with the terms Games engage students at a high level and have a powerful effect on recall
(This step should be done once a week)
Steps 4-6 ensure that students have multiple exposures and
experiences with the terms over time to help deepen their understanding

Checking in on Student Progress (formative assessment)
Level 4 I understand even more about the term than when I was taught
Level 3 I understand the term and Irsquom not confused about any part of what it means
Level 2 Irsquom a little uncertain about what the term means but I have a general idea
Level 1 Irsquom very uncertain about the term I really donrsquot understand what it means
16
Things to ponderhellip
How do I provide rich and varied language experiences that support learning and using vocabulary
Do I spend time to teach individual words
What type of word-learning strategies have I taught to my students to help them increase their vocabularies
In what ways do I develop word consciousness How does the culture of my classroom show a motivation and appreciation for word learning in what ways do I support and encourage students in making a commitment to acquiring word knowledge and do I share my own thirst for learning new words

The Journeyhellip
Each fall monarch butterflies in Maine beginan unbelievable journey to a hilltop in MexicoHow do they do it They focus on the goalnot the difficulties Each day they take theirbearings and set off allowing their instinctsand desire to steer them They accept whatcomes some winds blow them off courseothers speed them along They keep flyinguntil one day they arrive
Monarch butterflies are the only insect that migrates to a warmer climate that is 2500 miles away each year
