Description
"Students need many opportunities for developing a rich vocabulary through listening, speaking, reading, and writing in an integrated manner. Vocabulary instruction should be an integral component in a daily literacy program. Integrating vocabulary instruction provides students with numerous opportunities to manipulate and learn new words."
