This session is intended to introduce educators through research and some practical steps towards designing and implementing direct vocabulary instruction in classrooms.

We highly recommend that you also register for Adam Brownings' session on Nov. 9, 2017 entitled High-Yield Vocabulary Activities 
This workshop is a great follow-up to Why Vocabulary? Because it’s primary focus is on high-yield activities to implement in your classroom.
