Guiding Questions for Discussion from published Study Guide
1. The Common Core State Standards include a focus on learning word relationships
and nuances. What does this emphasis mean for your students?
2. In Chapter 4, students have many opportunities to find their own synonyms and
antonyms. Share your insights about these practices. Discuss other ways to help
students take ownership of their vocabulary study.
3. How do vocabulary lanyards support students’ vocabulary learning in Leslie’s and
Margot’s classrooms? Is this a good idea? Why or why not?
4. This chapter explains the concept of vocabulary code switching. Discuss examples
of code switching within your school population and how you might address it
within vocabulary instruction.
