Teaching vocabulary directly to our students is one of the most important instructional decisions we can make. Word Works is a way of planning and teaching lessons and units that helps students develop the skills needed to learn new academic concepts and terms. At the center of Word Works is a four-phase teaching and learning framework known as CODE, which teaches students how to Connect to new terms, Organize terms into meaningful categories, Deep Process the most important terms, and Exercise new terms so they enter students’ permanent memories.

This video is designed to be used with the Thoughtful Classroom Portfolio Word Works: Cracking Vocabulary’s CODE. The video features Dr. Harvey F. Silver, founder of The Thoughtful Classroom, who will guide you through four separate learning sessions.

• Session One focuses on the theory and research behind effective
   vocabulary instruction and introduces the CODE framework.

• In Session Two, you’ll learn how to select and implement
   research-based instructional techniques from the
   Vocabulary Toolbox, and you’ll plan a vocabulary-rich
   unit for your classroom.

• In Session Three, you’ll refine your teaching by reflecting
   on the effectiveness of your unit in the classroom.

• Session Four models a process for analyzing student
   work and shows you how to use student work to
   improve instructional decision making.

Throughout the video, you’ll view teachers implementing vocabulary lessons and units in their classrooms. There will also be activity breaks to help you process new content, reflect on your practices, and plan vocabulary lessons and units for your classroom.
