Word roots instruction increases students' vocabularies - especially academic vocabulary needed for success in science, math, and social studies.
"Learning just one word root helps students learn the meaning (as well as the spelling and sounding) of 50 or more English words. That’s a pretty good payoff for learning a few word roots." —Dr. Tim Rasinski Click the link below to read Timothy Rasinski's blog article about building vocabulary in summer school. https://hubs.ly/Q02CwbTM0
Please check out and share my newest article on medium: it's about a method I use for teaching argument craft in high school English, but how we "adults" could really benefit from using this strategy, too!

Research proves 250% of people reach a higher performance who set more challenging goals. What big goal do you have for this semester? Take some time this week to break down your goals into bite-size chunks you can tackle on step at a time. Example: Your goal #1 - get an A on next English class essay and every essay this semster. (Although I've never earned higher than a B ). Breakdown goal - 1) Read and annotate the English class book we are reading. 2) Participate in class discussion. 3) Begin the essay as soon as teacher gives assignment. 4) Commit to revising a minimum of three times. 5) Commit to asking a trusted source, like a friend, parent, or tutor to review and give me comments. You can do it! Let's go!
I’d like to have some insights here.. From school times textbooks to present times documentations- why is that, that every definition present is written in high level English language and one has to explain another by simplifying it’s meaning, where the entire purpose of a definition is to make one understand the meaning of that particular word or sentence? Irony huh? #randomthoughts #frustratedlearner
I help language teachers create more balance and get better results for their learners through low-to-no prep tasks, a better teacher AND learner mindset, and the Lexical Approach. Host of Everything EFL Podcast.
Dialogues are a great way to implement the lexical approach because they encompass so many of its philosophies and ideas: - grammar is seen in context and in conjunction with other grammar points, removing the isolated single-sentence examples - they can be exploited for noticing activities, a receptive way of learning grammar - dialogues are conversational and (should) reflect real-world language - you can ask students to identify chunks of language in the dialogue - the possibilities only end with your imagination. - parts of speech or chunks can be blanked out For more teacher inspo, join my Breathe Easy Teacher newsletter.
