Answer to Question 1
Answer: Explicit teaching of vocabulary enhances students' vocabulary acquisition. Students benefit from instruction in learning new words, word parts, and word origins, how to use context to determine meaning, and how to use resources such as a dictionary or thesaurus. Direct instruction of academic and content area vocabulary is necessary for intermediate-grade students. Students also benefit from teachers modeling vocabulary during the school day.
