VOCABULARY IN A SNAP

By Angela B. Peery. Memorable "minilessons" created by an experienced teacher and designed to be completed in 20 minutes or less offer a flexible, practical, and fun way to increase students’ vocabulary, interest in reading, and potential for future success. Each lesson contains four core "SNAP" steps: Seeing and saying each word, Naming a category or group each word belongs to, Acting on the words (i.e., engaging in a brief task or conversation about them), and Producing an individual, original application of the words. Chapters cover roots, prefixes, suffixes, testing terms, and varied voice. Grades 6–12. Index. Appendix. References. Solution Tree. 247 pages. ©2018.
