WHY IS WORD PLAY IMPORTANT?

Vocabulary expert Michael Graves tells us an effective Vocabulary Plan should include "fostering word consciousness"; in other words, getting students interested in how our language goes together. WORD PLAY is a great way to generate that interest!



Each HIP TIP in December will feature a different HOLIDAY WORD GAME. Click here to revisit last year's Rudolph Mad Lib and our ever-popular Holiday Hinky-Pinkies.
