Why is Vocabulary Important? • Cumulative Vocabulary • Children from professional families: • 1100 words • Children from working class families: • 700 words • Children from welfare families: • 500 words
Cumulative Vocabulary Experiences • Welfare – words heard per hour – 616 • - words heard in a 100 hr. week – 62,000 • - words heard in a 5200 hr. yr. – 3 million • - 4 years – 13 million
Cumulative Vocabulary Experiences • Working class–words heard per hr. – 1251 • - words heard in a 100 hr. wk. – 125,000 • - words heard in a 5200 hr. yr. – 6 million • - 4 years – 26 million

Progress Monitoring • Started monitoring this year with first and second graders • Progress monitoring covers all areas except Letter Naming Fluency • Progress monitoring used for students who are below benchmark
How Often Should Monitoring Be Done • At least every 3 weeks • Weekly progress monitoring necessary only if we are ready to change instructional groups each week • It is more important to spend time instructing, rather than assessing • When a student’s monitoring reaches benchmark on two consecutive assessments, it is time to exit the group
Thank You • A big thank you to everyone who attended today. We hope it was informational and something you can use in your own classrooms.
