Message from Research
Networks of words
makes it easier to
process what you hear

The power of
vocabulary is not in

individual word itself, as
it is in the web of
connections you build
towards that word.

Activity: Add to the Web
As a table examine the next story in the Anthology,
Royal Family:
•
Have one person read it aloud.
•
Write down words you hear that would be added to the
web.
•
After reading a paragraph, look at the list and ‘work into’
the web… build connections among words that relate,
that are synonyms or antonyms, that are exemplars, or
categories, to words in the web.
•
Note words that are repeated or given a new nuance.

What are the critical
elements of the
materials?
