| What is Structural or Morphemic Analysis? | Students use word parts, known as morphemes (roots and affixes), to determine a word's meaning |
| What is Contextual Analysis? | Students treat the surrounding text as a clue, using it to determine the meaning of a word |
| What do Connotation and Denotation mean? | A literal meaning (denotation) and implied meanings (connotation) |
| What instructional strategies (7) can you use in the classroom to build academic vocabularies? | Pre-teach vocabulary, Graphic organizers, semantic mapping, frayer models, word webs, word walls, and vocab notebooks |
| What is a frayer model? | Students explore vocabulary by defining the word, listing key characteristics, giving examples, and identifying non-examples. |
| What implicit instructional strategies (3) can you use? | 1. Foster Rich Oral Language Experiences - Create frequent opportunities for students to listen to and engage in conversations 2. Read Aloud Regularly 3. Encourage Independent Reading |
| What is morphology? | The study of word form in a language. Words are formed with morphemes, which are the smallest meaningful units in a language. |
| What two categories of morphemes are there? | Roots and affixes |
| What are roots? What are the two categories of roots? | Bases to which affixes may be attached, provide the core meaning Free: can stand alone as its own word or Bound: cannot stand alone |
| What are three examples of free roots? | Help, love, friend |

| What is an Inflectional Affix? What is an example? | Alters the form of the word; typically does not change the part of speech Ex. loud, loudER, loudEST all being adjectives or adverbs |

| What is an idiom? | Common phrases or expressions with a figurative meaning Ex. "raining cats and dogs." |
| How do you use Syntactic or Semantic clues? | Think about the placement of the given word. Is it a verb? Adjective? Ex. My ORNERY big brother YELLED AT ME when I walked in front of the TV while he was playing video games. Ornery would be negative due to context clues |
| How can you check if the word you are replacing in a sentence actually represents the original word? | Substitute that word or phrase into the sentence to see if it makes sense. Make sure it matches the original (adj with adj, verb with verb, etc) |
