At first you think,“Well, it’s only one word:' But then you think,“ What is it that I'm not supposed to touch?" AII of a sudden, knowing what that one word means is important! Clearly, the more words you know, the better your understanding of everything you read Wordly Wise 3000 will help you learn a lot of words, but it can't teach you 011 the words you'lI ever need It can, however, help guide your learning of new words on your own How Do You Learn What Words Mean? There are two main ways you learn what words mean: directly and indirectly You have to learn some words directly You may study them for a class, look them up in a dictionary or glossary, or ask someone what they mean You also learn word meanings indirectly by hearing and reading the words In fact, the more you listen and read , the more words you’Illearn Reading books, magazines, and online can help build your vocabulary At school, you learn a lot of words directly If you're using this book, you are learning words directly You are reading the words, learning what they mean, and studying them Then you are practicing them as you do the activities Finally, you might even use them in your own writing or conversations There is an old saying: “ Use a word three times and it's yours:' Three times might not be enough, of course, but the idea is right The more you practice using a word, the better you understand it IV What Is "School Language’? 5choollanguage-or school words-are the words you find in the books you read , from novels to textbooks, and on tests You read them online as you look up information Your teacher uses these words to explain an important concept about math or reading 50me have to do with a particular topic, such as the building of the Great Pyramid in Egypt Others are words for tasks you are being asked to do, such as summarize These words are different from the kinds ofwords you use when you’re hanging out with your friends or talking casually with your family That’s whyyou often need to study these words directly Wordly Wise 3000 is designed to teach you some of the words you need to do well in school and on tests-and later on in your jobs It will also help you learn how to learn more words Remember, there is no single thing that will help you understand what you read as much as knowing word meanings wil l How 00 You Figure Out Word Meanings? What should you do when you come to a word and you think you don't know what it means? Saylt First, say it to yourself Maybe once you do this, it will sound like a word you do know 50metimes you know a word in your head without knowing what it looks like in print 50 if you match up what you know and what you read-you have the word! Use Context If this doesn’t work, take the next step: look at the context of the word- the other words and sentences around it 50metimes these can give you a clue to the word’s meaning Here's an example: Mκ Huerta had great respect for his opponent Wordly Wise 3000 Book 6 V Say that you don’t know what opponent means Does Mr Huerta have respect for his teacher? His mother? Then you read on: The two players sat across from each other in the warm room The chessboard was between them 80th looked as if they were concentrating veryhard Now you see that Mr Huerta is taking part in a chess game You know that in a chess game, one person plays another So his opponent must be the person he is playing against You reread the sentence using that meaning Yes, that works.ln this sentence, opponent means "someone you play against, or compete with:' Use Word Parts If the context doesn’t help, look at the parts of the word Does it have any prefixes you know? How about suffixes? Or roots? These can help you figure out what it means Look at this sentence: Shania had the misfortune to hurt her arm right before the sWlm meet If you don't know the meaning of misfortune, try looking at parts of the word You might know that fortune means “ luclζ, Maybe mis- is a prefix You could look it up, or maybe you remember its meaning from studying prefixes in school The prefix mis- means a few different things, but one of them is “ bad:’ You try it out and reread the sentence using that meaning It would certainly be bad luck, or a misfortune, to hurt your arm before a sWlm meet Look It Up If saying the word or using context and word parts don't work, you can look it up in a dictionary-either a book or online reference-or a glossary Nobody knows the meaning of every word, but good readers know how to use these strategies to figure out words they don't know Get into the habit of using them as you read, and you may be surprised at how automatic it becomes! VI How Well Do You Knowa Word? It’s important to know many words and to keep on learning more But it's also important to know them wel l In fact, some experts say that there are four levels of knowing a word: 1.1 never saw/heard it before 2 I've heard/seen it, but 1don't know what it means 3.1 think it has something to do with 4.1 know it.용 Just because you can read a word and have memorized its definition, it doesn’t mean that you know that word wel l You want to know it so well that you know when to use it and when to use another word instead One way to help deepen your knowledge of a word is to use a graphic organizer like the one below that tells about the word portion Concept of Definition Map What is this? a part or share of the whole Examples Non-examples section, share, whole, servmg something complete portion What is it like? a part of something larger may be one person’ sshare If you can fill in all the parts of this graphic organizer, you are well on your way to really knowing the word portion *Dale, E., & O'Rourke, J (1986) Vocabulary Building Columbus, OH:Zaner-Bloser Wordly Wise 3000 Book 6 VII 口 - Free Website: WordlyWise3000.com Did you know you can access Wordly Wise 3000 online?
