Children build vocabulary as they hear and use the vocabulary in new contexts and interact with the words repeatedly. The illustrated activities include:
•vocabulary definitions and examples
•application of vocabulary to current knowledge
•phonological awareness tasks (syllable awareness, rhyming, initial sounds)
•questions to help children conceptualize new vocabulary
•semantic applications (synonyms, antonyms)
•social language applications (inferring, perspective-taking)
