This extensively revised and expanded edition of the bestselling text and teaching resource incorporates the newest research in vocabulary learning and instruction into a complete and balanced program for all K–12 students, from those who struggle in school to those who excel. Literacy expert Michael Graves presents a four-pronged vocabulary program that he has developed and honed for over 30 years. The program has the following four components: Frequent, Varied, and Extensive Language Experiences; Teaching Individual Words; Teaching Word Learning Strategies; and Fostering Word Consciousness. The text includes theory, research-based strategies, vocabulary interventions, classroom examples, advice for working with English learners, discussion of next-generation standards, and more. The Vocabulary Book, Second Edition will appeal to reading and subject-area teachers, teacher educators, and school, district, and state leaders. New for the Second Edition: Instructional approaches developed and classroom-tested since the release of the first edition. A chapter specifically on teaching vocabulary to English learners. A chapter specifically on selecting vocabulary words to teach. Curricular and instructional elements designed to meet and exceed Common Core State Standards. An emphasis on vocabulary as a vital resource for all students in our increasingly diverse society. “If you believe vocabulary instruction is vital to reading, writing, and thinking, then Michael Graves’ Second Edition of The Vocabulary Book will give you the tools for powerful instruction, as many teachers discovered with the First Edition. This book will shift your perspective and you will reap the benefits of placing vocabulary at the center of your instruction.” —Peter Dewitz, district level reading consultant, Mary Baldwin College “Now that ‘vocabulary’ is included on the Nation’s Report Card, teachers will want to know how to help students increase their word power. Graves’s advice will be invaluable in what to do—and what not to do.” —Robert Calfee, professor emeritus, Stanford University “This book is an excellent resource for practitioners interested in developing a comprehensive program for building vocabulary in children. It is also of great value for researchers who wish to design and test vocabulary interventions.” —Diane August, senior research scientist, Center for Applied Linguistics

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Linguistik, Note: 1,7, Universität Bayreuth, Veranstaltung: Proseminar Lexicography, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Learner’s Dictionaries are only about half a century old. Back in the 1930’s a need for better language teaching tools developed. A.S. Hornby worked out the first major general-purpose dictionary of this kind in 1942, which was first called the Idiomatic and Syntactic Dictionary of English, later on in 1948 A Learner’s Dictionary of Current English and was at last published in 1952 as The Advanced Learner’s Dictionary of Current English. The the was replaced from the third edition on by Oxford and the dictionary is now known as the OALD. In 1978 Longman developed a more innovative Learner’s Dictionary: the Dictionary of Contemporary English (LDOCE). In contrast to the OALD the LDOCE only used a defining vocabulary of 2000 words that were listed at its back. Furthermore it explained more modern words for example current idioms, slang and colloquialisms. The only disadvantage of this dictionary was the “over-complex system of grammatical codes” (see Robert Allen 1996, p.41), which was improved in the second edition from 1987 and the third edition, published in 1995.

Research shows that vocabulary is the best support for students’ comprehension of narrative and information texts. Often, vocabulary instruction focuses on a few target words in specific texts. However, to understand the many new words in complex texts students need to know how words work. This book, written by an award-winning authority on reading instruction, shows teachers how to make small changes to teach more words and also how words work. Many of these small changes involve enrichments to existing vocabulary practices, such as word walls and conversations with students. Each chapter includes descriptions of teachers’ implementation of small changes to support big gains in students’ vocabulary. This book, which has sufficient depth in research and theory for graduate and undergraduate courses in vocabulary instruction, also offers practical steps that K–8 teachers can use in any reading program to help all students grow their vocabulary. Teaching Words and How They Work shows teachers how to: Identify the most important word families to teach. Teach students to use opening text as background knowledge for comprehending the rest of the text. Use word walls with more purpose and greater student engagement. Select the right words to teach from new information texts. Better understand limitations of leveled texts and how to adjust. Use assets and address challenges to support English learners.

Native speaker of English? You can tutor simplified phonetics for ESL (English as a Second Language) with this tutor's script and workbook. It was developed to enable volunteer tutors to give-back to their communities. MASTER ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION QUICKLY! There's an easier way than memorizing and imitating individual words and word lists for months or years in traditional schools! Bonus: Gain complete control of vocabulary development to personal needs. How? Using the tutor text "Practical Word Power" ("PWP"), learners master only 46 dictionary codes that exactly represent the 40 key sounds of English. Codes simplify an otherwise difficult task of endless memorization of new vocabulary in formal school classes. With "PWP," it's only 16 class hours! Only 46 "American Heritage" dictionary codes specify the 40 sounds of English: master them. Forty codes learned via "Practical Word Power" ("PWP") deliver exact pronunciation of all dictionary words. If codes are used in conjunction with the learners' bilingual dictionary, teen/adult learners can immediately speak correctly in English any word that's already known in their own native language. That's lifelong independence! Why does "PWP" work? Most schools teach via memorized, generic word lists, reflecting no teen/adult life well; they teach general rules, but rules can't work specifically for more than 1,100 variant spellings for 40 sounds. Main rule, "'I' before 'E' except after 'C'. . .except. . .except; . . .then guess!" It's easier to be wrong than right. Different publishers' codes vary, but all dictionaries that use codes are specific: every time, every word. "PWP" teaches how to use all codes. You get the foundations you need in order to pronounce words correctly when needed, not if-and-when listed in class. A research report from U-Milan regarding dyslexia challenges language complexity ("Science" March 26, '01; on author's business website). That implicitly questions the century-old Dewey-rules method used in all traditional schools. Dewey didn't have computers and brain scans at hand. Limited-English ability? No-English handicap? "PWP" works with both groups. How does the course work? "PWP" is a verbatim tutor's text/workbook. All needed instructional materials, chalkboard entries, drills, and tests are provided for the tutor. Volunteer tutors can't do it wrong! At root, tutors are only teaching the foreign-born how to sound like Americans. We have all learned from family and friends by imitating their sounds. Those sounds are captured in dictionary codes that tell the eye what the ear expects to hear. Any mix of foreign languages can be taught in a "PWP" class if taught in English, because English is the common denominator. Of course, limited-English learners must already understand basic instruction in English. In addition, speakers of any foreign language can be taught in that language by bilinguals who can read the English and speak that native language. No magic pills: learners must expect to concentrate and be prepared to do light homework in later sessions. Volunteer tutors: Do you already speak American-English? If so, you can tutor up to 10 learners simultaneously in English--in English and/or their own native languages. Communities can give-back at extremely low cost on any schedules that works for the community. If you're either mono-lingual or bilingual, are you willing to devote 16-hours (8 classes; 2-hours each) to control English pronunciation and vocabulary development? Add about 8-10 hours for preparation of the total program, the first time, only. Only 2 class hours plus quick review of the lesson plan, thereafter. "PWP" holds California's Certificate of Compliance--it's legal to teach as supplemental tex
