Description: This demonstration video shows a teacher using robust vocabulary instruction. This introductory vocabulary instruction is done after reading the text. For each word, the teacher goes through a four step process: provide the context in which the word appeared in the text, provide a student-friendly definition, provide additional context outside of the text for the word, and provide opportunities for the student to interact with the word. After this introduction of the words, the teacher will then provide opportunities throughout the week for students to continue to interact with the words.
