Vocabulary is essential to learning to read, understanding what is read, and communicating effectively. Research demonstrates that both indirect and direct instruction are necessary for vocabulary development.

Learning outcomes: • Describe the role that oral language, vocabulary, and knowledge play in literacy development for early readers • Implement research-based strategies to build oral language skills and encourage word play • Plan vocabulary instruction and learning experiences that deepen and broaden knowledge to support comprehension
