This guide shows teachers how to help students understand and use the new words they learn, rather than learning vocabulary through rote memorization. It aims to help teachers integrate vocabulary instruction with language arts using a gradual, cumulative, and revisiting approach that teaches words in context. Chapters include theoretical background and brain-based research and classroom applications. No index is provided. Benjamin, a former teacher, is a literacy education specialist and consultant for the National Council of Teachers of English. Crow is also a former teacher and consultant for the National Council of Teachers of English. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
