The Word Wall



The Word Wall
 
 
The benefits and use of a word wall in the classroom.
 
- support the teaching of key words and subject-specific terminology.
- promote independence in reading and writing by building vocabulary.
- provide visual clues and reference for language learners.
- help students remember connections between words and concepts

Word Walls are so important to a new reader.  Try using 2 in your classroom.  Have one for the teacher to add to and then have one at students level that they can add to, they can bring words from home too.
