You shouldn't have to spend your weekend building vocabulary PD from scratch. This Make & Take Workshop does the heavy lifting for you.This ready-to-run slide deck gives you everything you need to lead a research-backed, engaging professional learning session on vocabulary instruction- open it, present it, and walk away feeling like the coach your teachers didn't know they needed. 💛
What's inside:
The research case for why vocabulary matters and what is effective (and why decoding alone isn't enough)
Classroom strategies teachers can use immediately
A simple, explicit vocabulary routine broken down step by step
How to weave vocabulary throughout the school day naturally
Reflection prompts and sheets to print
Resources for teachers
Activities for the "Make and Take" portion of the PD
Who this is for:
Literacy coaches, reading specialists, instructional coaches, and teacher leaders who want to provide high-quality vocabulary PD without starting from zero.
This workshop is also included in the Literacy Coaching Hub... a growing library of Make & Take workshops and coaching resources that expands every time I add something new. One investment, an ever-growing toolkit.
Enjoy!
