Did you know that researchers estimate 85% of achievement test scores are based on the vocabulary of the standards? Now that right there is a crazy thought, but makes sense!
If students are asked to identify, but don’t know what that means, how will they know how to identify?
If students are asked to infer, but don’t know what that means, how will they know how to infer?
If students are asked to distinguish, but don’t know what that means, how will they know how to distinguish?
That’s why I created the…..Interactive Notebook for Test Prep Vocabulary!!!!
Students will interact and become experts with 42 of the most critical verbs found with the Common Core State Standards. These words are not specific to any one-subject area, which makes them versatile. The words are not grade specific, because they are appropriate for a wide range of grade levels.
Each of the 42 words contains a definition and illustration.
Also, within each interactive notebook page, students are to provide a synonym, antonym, and sentence for the word.
In addition, students are to give examples of how they might see and/or use the word in math and reading.
A teacher resource page with a full-page colored example of each word is provided. The resource page also provides the teacher with a synonym, antonym, and ways the word might be used in math and reading.
Everything you and your students need to become experts with these high frequency Common Core verbs is right here!
