Have the class repeat the word. Point to each letter as the class spells the word. Instruct students to write the word on their paper. Read the story containing that word to the class. Tell students to listen carefully for the word.
Students write what they think the word means even if they are unsure.
Have 6-8 students give their meanings, making comments such as good, close, etc. Tell the correct meaning, stating the source. Have students write the correct meaning. On Friday give a review lesson as a test on 20 words that were introduced during the week. There is high interest in this lesson.
