This lesson plan supports the explicit teaching of tier 2 vocabulary words. While designed in conjunction with a specific picture book, the lesson plan can be easily followed with similar texts.
I love this vocabulary and comprehension lesson by Kate Winn. It provides great examples of how to teach tier 2 words within a read aloud. I used this lesson last year with my grade 2/3 class!
Love these lessons and Kate’s book choices. Great examples of how we can ensure those tier 2 vocabulary words are explicitly taught during read alouds.
It is a great lesson, and I don’t know if the author engaged in any consultation. It would be amazing, respectful, to seek consultation with Indigenous leads in school boards, Indigenous communities, and community members, before sharing lessons that connect with Indigenous contexts, stories, People.
Nice to see how easily vocabulary can be implemented into a read aloud in an explicit and thoughtful manner.
Great lesson with a great picture book
