Standard 4: Vocabulary

Students will expand their working vocabularies to effectively communicate and understand texts.

K.4.W.1 Students will name and sort pictures of objects into categories based on common attributes with guidance and support.

Student Actions 

Teacher Actions 

Through shared language activities, with guidance and support:
  • Students will begin to use new vocabulary to produce complete sentences.

Students at this level require guidance and support during instructional opportunities for this objective.
  • Teachers explain that a complete sentence must have a subject and a second part that shows an action or condition.  Example:
    • Tom threw the ball.
    • Tom is happy.
  • Teachers give examples of complete sentences and ask:  who is the sentence about and what are they doing?
  • Teacher uses picture or photo prompts to help students build complete sentences collaboratively.
  • Teachers give students guidance and support when using new vocabulary to verbally form complete sentences.
  • Teachers provide sentence frames to help students form a complete sentence when applicable.  Example: I like to… My friend is…
  • Teachers provide opportunities to use new vocabulary in complete sentences.
  • Teachers monitor and provide opportunities for students to receive feedback as students use new vocabulary in sentences.
  • Teachers model extending complete sentences.

Teacher Insights

Learning to Read and Write (webpage)
  • The intent of this standard is that students learn new academic vocabulary, content-specific vocabulary, and grade-level vocabulary and use that new language and vocabulary in complete sentences.

  • Shared language activities include shared reading, shared writing, mini-lessons, read alouds, etc.

Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
