What is happening
this week?
This week we are learning about
Vocabulary, which is the glue that
holds stories, ideas, and content
together.
We understand that a student’s
skill in Vocabulary makes
comprehension accessible for
them.

Strategies to use at
home
Parents can contribute in many
ways when it comes to
teaching outside the
classroom:
o Word Detective: This
activity enables your
child to see words in
different contexts,
therefore deepening
their knowledge. It
requires them to find
new words as they
encounter them in their
daily reading.
o Word Wizard: The jigsaw
learning technique is a
quick and effective way
for your child to work
with you or other family
members while learning
key vocabulary words
