Vocabulary’s CODE

The next core six strategy discussed in The Core Six: Essential Strategies for Achieving Excellence with the Common Core is……. …….. Vocabulary’s Code.

Vocabulary’s CODE is a strategic approach for direct vocabulary instruction that helps students master crucial concepts and retain new vocabulary terms. Students work their way from initial exposure to in- depth understanding through a series of progressive, systematic learning activities, which help students “crack” Vocabulary’s CODE. Vocabulary’s CODE provides teachers with a framework and set of instructional tools to build a four-phase learning sequence which deepens students’ understanding of key words.

 C onnecting with new words.  O rganizing new words into meaningful categories ensuring that students see relationships between words and how they make up a larger structure..  D eep-processing of the most important concepts and terms using thinking strategies.  E xercising the mind through strategic review and practice commits new words into long- term memory.

 Vocabulary is a foundation for improved literacy.  Academic vocabulary is at the core of the Core.  Vocabulary fuels learning.

 What are the essential terms students need to learn? (Think Wiggins and McTighe’s: Nice-to-know words, Important words, and Core-content words)  What do you want to happen during each phase of Vocabulary’s CODE?  What types of tools from the Vocabulary’s CODE Matrix will help you meet these goals?  How will you use these tools to conduct formative assessment of students’ growing understanding?

 Phase One: How will students CONNECT with the new terms?  Phase Two: How will students ORGANIZE the new words?  Phase Three: How will students DEEP- PROCESS the words?  Phase Four: How will students EXERCISE their understanding of new words?

 Any writing assignment provides an opportunity for students to utilize new vocabulary terms in a meaningful way.  We can improve students’ mastery of new terms and their power as writers by requiring them to use an appropriate number of vocabulary terms in their writing assignments.
