Mrs. Beard’s Second Graders Explore the World of Words
Instructional Strategies for Reaching Every Child
The floor was the place to be as second graders gathered close, captivated by Mrs. Beard’s voice as she led them through an exploration of words. Together they listened for which words rhymed, and which words didn’t belong. Mrs. Beard’s students turned detectives, uncovered how one word can have multiple meanings, expanding their vocabulary and reading comprehension. One student identified the word ‘board’, he said, “like ‘bored’ when you feeling uninterested, or ‘board’ like a surfboard. “WOW!” responded Mrs. Beard, “great example!” Another student added, “or ‘board’ like when you get on an airplane!” Mrs. Beard was so impressed with the flow of examples her students shared. Next she guided them through strategies like 'chopping' words to break down those longer words, and then 'blending' them back together. They got out their “choppers” and collectively sounded out and chopped words in unison. Lakewood Elementary teachers are truly skilled at their craft, they’re masterful at transforming learning into a fun and engaged adventure for their students. Their talent in making learning accessible for all students using a range of instructional techniques allows kids to build confidence, thrive, and succeed. Go Vikings!
