Let’s Know! is a supplemental curriculum designed to develop comprehension skills, such as vocabulary, text structure knowledge, inference, and comprehension monitoring, over the course of a school year.
The Core Knowledge Language Arts (CKLA) curriculum builds students’ reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills through an integrated literacy approach.
In this activity students will categorize words based on their meaning. To modify this activity the teacher can create the categories along with the vocabulary words.
This resource requires the following modification to explicitly target listening comprehension: shift the burden of decoding/encoding onto the educator (i.e., the educator should read/write instead of the student(s)).
