Vocabulary improves all areas of communication— listening, speaking, reading and writing. Vocabulary is critical to a child’s success for these reasons:
🍎 Vocabulary growth is directly related to school achievement.
🍏 The size of a child’s vocabulary predicts the ability to learn to read.
(This is the vocabulary wall from The Butterflies apple 🍎 unit.)
Getting inspired by some of our favorite artists!
