| Course Description | The improvement of reading and writing is inseparable from the accumulation of vocabulary. Studies have shown that the accumulation of vocabulary cannot merely be achieved by reading more. In-depth vocabulary study is very important and necessary, especially when it comes to academic vocabulary. At Brighter Bee Academy, we use Wordly Wise 3000, a curriculum that provides direct academic vocabulary instruction to develop the critical link between vocabulary and reading comprehension. It is also used by top private schools across the U.S.
WW3000 Overview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsIS8VEir2I In this course, students will be introduced to a wide range of age-appropriate vocabulary, build reading fluency and comprehension skills, as well as develop fluent speaking skills. Students will be introduced weekly to new vocabulary terms that will be mastered through direct instruction, real word recognition, independent application and represented throughout the weekly short stories. Students will complete interactive games, do simple projects and presentations, and have various discussions about the weekly stories led by the instructor Ms. Danielle. |
