My comments on tutoring Elementary Vocabulary : Vocabulary is the key to understanding what you read. For English Language Learners, I use a lot of Visuals. If they understand the lexicon of the word, the antonym, synonym prefixes, suffixes and the parts of speech, the student will have an excellent understanding of the world. I believe in allowing kids to make words by using letter cards and then using the words they make into a sentence. I think Vocabulary games are very fun for the students.
I spend a lot of time teaching small group interventions which focuses on the Reading Sufficiency criteria that is mandated by the Oklahoma State Department of Education. I have also worked with many Gifted and Talented students preparing them for Writing Contests. My passion is encouraging students to look forward to the Core Curriculum Test. In the past I have been given the opportunity to teach Art and Writing and mnay of my students have produced Writing Portfolios of which they are extremely proud!
