WordGen Vocabulary
It is a school-wide goal in literacy to improve the acquisition of academic vocabulary, a particular focus in 4th and 5th grades. In 4th grade, we consider our spelling words to be vocabulary for which we study the meaning! We use the WordGen program to teach academic vocabulary through daily varied forms of practice. Students will receive new words each two weeks, which they will write in their planners. Each two weeks students truly only focus in depth on 5-6 words, but practice using multiple definitions and using the words in reading, listening, speaking, and writing! I have posted below the list of words we will cover in 4th grade over the course of the year, as well as a list of "chants" that we use to teach words so that students can practice at home. I have, additionally posted the student "workbooks" that we will be printing out for each unit per student, so if a student loses theirs, you are able to still practice the words at home!
