Teaching Vocabulary in the Science of Reading: Simple Strategies to Build Reading Comprehension

How do you effectively teach vocabulary in the primary classroom? In this episode of The Education Connection, we're exploring one of the essential components of the Science of Reading: vocabulary.

You'll learn why vocabulary instruction is critical for reading comprehension, how it differs from sight word practice, and simple classroom activities you can begin using immediately. Robin shares practical, teacher-friendly ideas including preteaching vocabulary before a read aloud, vocabulary scavenger hunts, and a hybrid activity that combines sight words with meaningful vocabulary instruction.

Whether you teach kindergarten, first grade, second grade, or work with struggling readers, these strategies will help your students develop stronger language skills and become more confident readers.
