respond using newly acquired vocabulary as appropriate; and
responda usando el vocabulario recién adquirido según sea apropiado; y
Después de presentar cinco palabras nuevas a los estudiantes, pídales que escriban historias cortas usando en contexto las cinco palabras.
Este ejemplo permite que el maestro determine si los estudiantes pueden usar correctamente cinco palabras nuevas en una historia corta. Conforme los estudiantes adquieren más práctica usando vocabulario nuevo en una tarea específica, como escribir historias cortas, ellos tendrán mejor capacidad para ofrecer una variedad de textos escritos en donde usen el vocabulario recién adquirido.

Summary: The purpose of the study was to determine if a technology-based teacher professional development program could impact the lexical inferencing skills of fourth grade students in rural schools. Teachers learned specific methods for teaching vocabulary learning strategies. Results were not conclusive, but the study recommends increased teacher knowledge of vocabulary learning instruction, including collaboration between the classroom teacher and other school professionals, such as speech language pathologists as a partnership for identifying and remediating reading, particularly vocabulary, deficits.
