Integrating Word Work in the Intermediate Grades

by Max Brand

(3-6)
In this two-part video series, educator Max Brand demonstrates how you can help your students search for, study, and celebrate words. Through these videos, taped over the course of an actual class day, you`ll see distinct word-instruction techniques as well as many spontaneous teaching moments. You`ll discover how word work is more than just spelling skills or vocabulary knowledge. It`s about a better understanding of words and their uses in all contexts. Part I guides you through word work across the content areas while Part II focuses on word-work activities during the literacy block.
