Appendix B: Vocabulary

Wit & Wisdom focuses on teaching and learning words from texts. Students develop an awareness of how words are built, how they function within sentences, and how word choice affects meaning and reveals an author’s purpose.

The purpose of vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom is to achieve the following three key student outcomes:

Improve comprehension of complex texts.

Increase students’ knowledge of words and word parts (including affixes, Latin or Greek roots, etc.).

Increase students’ ability to solve for unknown words on their own.

To achieve these outcomes, vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom emphasizes the following three categories of vocabulary words:

Content Vocabulary: Necessary for understanding a central idea of the domain-specific text and/ or module topic.

Academic Vocabulary: High-priority words that can be used across disciplines and are likely to be encountered in other texts. Often abstract and with multiple meanings, these words are unlikely to be known by students with limited vocabularies.

Text-Critical Vocabulary: Words and phrases that are essential to students’ understanding of a particular text or excerpt.

Vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom will occur within the following types of instruction:

Core 75-minute. daily lessons: Vocabulary study that is essential to understanding the text at hand. Instructional strategies are explicitly introduced and practiced during vocabulary instruction and put into practice during a reading of a text.

Vocabulary Deep Dives: Vocabulary instruction and practice that advances students’ knowledge of high-value words and word-solving strategies, focusing on aspects such as abstract or multiple meanings, connotation, relationships across words, and morphology.

Vocabulary learning is assessed indirectly through application and directly through two-question assessments (Kindergarten through Grade 2) and sentence assessments (Grades 3–8). Assessment words are selected because of their importance to the module’s content, as well as their relevance and transferability to other texts and subject areas.

Indirect Assessment: Students are expected to use and incorporate words from the following list into their academic discourse, through speaking and listening (during Socratic Seminars) and writing (during formal writing tasks, such as the EOM Task).

Direct Assessment: Teachers should make this list available to students through the Assessed Vocabulary Study Guide. (Words appear on two Assessed Vocabulary Study Guides for those grades that provide a mid- and end-of-module Vocabulary Assessment.)

You will note that indirect assessments are not specified in Module 1 of Kindergarten; rather, there are reminders about referencing the Word Wall and bringing previously studied vocabulary into the lessons when appropriate. This is an instructional decision to reduce the cognitive load required of beginning kindergartners, allowing them to focus on acclimating to classroom procedures and expectations. Indirect assessments will begin in Module 2.

The following is a complete list of all words taught and practiced in the module. Those that are assessed, directly or indirectly, are indicated.

GREAT MINDS® WIT & WISDOM

G1 Module 1

Appendix B: Vocabulary

The purpose of vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom is to achieve the following three key student outcomes:

Improve comprehension of complex texts.

Increase students’ knowledge of words and word parts (including affixes, Latin or Greek roots, etc.).

Increase students’ ability to solve for unknown words on their own.

To achieve these outcomes, vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom emphasizes the following three categories of vocabulary words:

Content Vocabulary: Necessary for understanding a central idea of the domain-specific text and/or module topic).

Text-Critical Vocabulary: Words and phrases that are essential to students’ understanding of a particular text or excerpt.

Vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom will occur within the following types of instruction:

Vocabulary learning is assessed indirectly through application, and directly through two-question assessments (Grades K—2) and sentence assessments (Grades 3–8). Assessment words are selected because of their importance to the module’s content as well as their relevance and transferability to other texts and subject areas.

Indirect Assessment*: Students are expected to use and incorporate words from the following list into their academic discourse, through speaking and listening (during Socratic Seminars) and writing (during formal writing tasks, such as the EOM Task).

* You will note that indirect assessments are not specified in Module 1; rather, there are reminders about referencing the Word Wall and bringing previously studied vocabulary into the lessons when appropriate. This is an instructional decision to reduce the cognitive load required of students, allowing them to focus on acclimating to classroom procedures and expectations. Indirect assessments will begin in Module 2.

Improve comprehension of complex texts.

Increase students’ knowledge of words and word parts (including affixes, Latin or Greek roots, etc.).

Increase students’ ability to solve for unknown words on their own.

To achieve these outcomes, vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom emphasizes the following three categories of vocabulary words:

Content Vocabulary: Necessary for understanding a central idea of the domain-specific text and/or module topic).

Text-Critical Vocabulary: Words and phrases that are essential to students’ understanding of a particular text or excerpt.

Vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom will occur within the following types of instruction:

Core 75-Min. Daily Lessons: Vocabulary study that is essential to understanding the text at hand. Instructional strategies are explicitly introduced and practiced during vocabulary instruction and put into practice during a reading of a text.

Vocabulary learning is assessed indirectly through application, and directly through two-question assessments (Grades Kindergarten–2) and sentence assessments (Grades 3–8).

Indirect Assessment: Students are expected to use and incorporate words from the Module Word List into their academic discourse, through speaking and listening (during Socratic Seminars) and writing (during formal writing tasks, such as the EOM Task).

The purpose of vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom is to achieve the following three key student outcomes:

Improve comprehension of complex texts.

Increase students’ knowledge of words and word parts (including affixes, Latin or Greek roots, etc.).

Increase students’ ability to solve for unknown words on their own.

In order to achieve these outcomes, vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom emphasizes the following three categories of vocabulary words:

Content Vocabulary: Necessary for understanding a central idea of the domain-specific text and/or module topic).

Text-Critical Vocabulary: Words and phrases that are essential to students’ understanding of a particular text or excerpt.

Vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom will occur within the following types of instruction:

Core 75-min. Daily Lessons: Vocabulary study that is essential to understanding the text at hand. Instructional strategies are explicitly introduced and practiced during vocabulary instruction and put into practice during a reading of a text.

Appendix B: Vocabulary

The purpose of vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom is to achieve the following three key student outcomes:

Improve comprehension of complex texts.

Increase students’ knowledge of words and word parts (including affixes, Latin or Greek roots, etc.).

Increase students’ ability to solve for unknown words on their own.

To achieve these outcomes, vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom emphasizes the following three categories of vocabulary words:

Content Vocabulary: Necessary for understanding a central idea of the domain-specific text and/or module topic.

Text-Critical Vocabulary: Words and phrases that are essential to students’ understanding of a particular text or excerpt.

Vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom will occur within the following types of instruction:

Vocabulary learning is assessed indirectly through application and directly through two-question assessments (Grades K–2) and sentence assessments (Grades 3–8).

Indirect Assessment: Students are expected to use and incorporate words from the list below into their academic discourse, through speaking and listening (during Socratic Seminars) and writing (during formal writing tasks, such as the EOM).

Direct Assessment: Students’ word knowledge will also be evaluated directly through definition assessments. Assessment words are selected because of their importance to the module’s content as well as their relevance and transferability to other texts and subject areas. Make this list of assessed words available to students. (List of assessment words can also be broken down into smaller word banks for ease of use.)

Grade 5 Module 3: A War Between Us

Vocabulary

GREAT MINDS® WIT & WISDOM

G5 Module 3

Appendix B: Vocabulary

The purpose of vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom is to achieve the following three key student outcomes:

Improve comprehension of complex texts.

Increase students’ knowledge of words and word parts (including affixes, Latin or Greek roots, and so on).

Increase students’ ability to determine the meaning of unknown words on their own.

To achieve these outcomes, vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom emphasizes the following three categories of vocabulary words:

Content Vocabulary: Necessary for understanding a central idea of the domain-specific text and/ or module topic.

Text-Critical Vocabulary: Words and phrases that are essential to students’ understanding of a particular text or excerpt.

Vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom occurs within the following types of instruction:

Core seventy-five-minute daily lessons: Vocabulary study that is essential to understanding the text at hand. Instructional strategies are explicitly introduced and practiced during vocabulary instruction and put into practice during a reading of a text.

Vocabulary learning is assessed indirectly through application, and directly through two-question assessments (Grades K–2) and sentence assessments (Grades 3–8).

Appendix B: Vocabulary

The purpose of vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom is to achieve the following three key student outcomes:

Improve comprehension of complex texts.

Increase students’ knowledge of words and word parts (including affixes, Latin or Greek roots, etc.).

Increase students’ ability to solve for unknown words on their own.

To achieve these outcomes, vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom emphasizes the following three categories of vocabulary words:

Content-Specific Vocabulary: Necessary for understanding a central idea of the domain-specific text and/or module topic.

Text-Critical Vocabulary: Words and phrases that are essential to students’ understanding of a particular text or excerpt.

Vocabulary study in Wit & Wisdom occurs within the following types of instruction:

Vocabulary learning is assessed indirectly through application, and directly through two-question assessments (Grades K–2) and sentence assessments (Grades 3–8).

Direct Assessment: Students’ word knowledge will also be evaluated directly through definition assessments. Assessment words are selected because of their importance to the module’s content as well as their relevance and transferability to other texts and subject areas. Teachers should make this list of assessed words available to students. (The list of assessment words can also be broken down into smaller Word Banks for ease of use.)
