Improve your students' comprehension and composition skills through explicit and effective vocabulary lessons! 

Growing vocabulary is critical to advancing literacy for ALL learners. At every grade level, vocabulary demands escalate as the complexity of text increases, making explicit vocabulary instruction essential. Additionally, reduced vocabulary is a hallmark of language delays and related literacy deficits, such as dyslexia and dysgraphia, so this instruction is particularly critical for students who struggle. 

This course will show you how to tackle the seemingly insurmountable task of targeting vocabulary and impacting linguistic growth!  

In this 2-hour training, discover practical vocabulary teaching practices and a research-based lesson format that is easily applicable to daily language arts. The class:

  • defines the tiers of vocabulary, identifying which tier facilitates the greatest literacy growth
  • articulates how to select appropriate vocabulary found within text to improve long-term comprehension skills overall

  • provides a step-by-step guide demonstrating how to teach vocabulary, using three provided lessons

With the accompanying packet, you will have the strategies and tools necessary to implement productive vocabulary lessons throughout your curriculum, helping your student make essential vocabulary gains!

This class is included with an active subscription in the Foundations for Teaching Reading, Writing & Spelling educator course. Active Foundations course participants need not purchase separately.

All Rooted in Language products incorporate research-based methods to support students with dyslexia, dysgraphia, developmental language disorder, and other literacy-based learning difficulties.
