I must have vocabulary on my mind today. I'm always looking for ways for my students to make connections, so I created this Wiggle Words Station. For each of their vocabulary words they do the following:
(1) Write the word on the mouth
(2) Write the definition
(3) T-T: Make a connection to the text. How is the word used in the story?
(4) T-S: Make a connection to their own lives.
(5) Illustrate
I usually run it 2-sided because we generally have 6 vocabulary words that go along with our story of the week in Reading. The vocabulary words used in the example below are from the book,
Arthur Writes a Story by Marc Brown.
