Emphasis: Vocabulary

The Reading Leadership Team (RLT) has identified vocabulary as an area of immediate concern. To this end, for the month of September, we will be concentrating on vocabulary during our daily reading period. We will continue this emphasis during the course of the school year.

I cannot emphasize how important the development of a good vocabulary is to student success in and out of the classroom. I can assure you that your students reading instructor will be doing everything humanly possible to insure your student develops those all important vocabulary skills. The most important thing you as a parent can do is to insure your student reads everyday. Also, you will find a list websites to the right of this blog that will assist your student in developing a good vocabulary.
