Tools for Teaching<br />
Academic <strong>Vocabulary</strong><br />
Allen (2014)<br />
This is a toolkit for teaching vocabulary. It provides strategies that<br />
will help students learn new words, become more conscious of<br />
words, and increase their competence in knowing when and how to<br />
use words.<br />
To help develop effective vocabulary instruction, Allen has divided<br />
the resource into four components:<br />
• Providing rich and varied language experiences, Teaching<br />
individual words, Teaching word-learning strategies and<br />
Fostering word consciousness.<br />
Allen further offers tools to develop effective instruction for each<br />
component. Each activity description includes:<br />
1. What the strategy is?<br />
2. How is could be used in the classroom?<br />
3. When/ why to apply the strategy?
