What Does It Mean to Build Knowledge Systematically? “Building knowledge systematically in English language arts is like giving children various pieces of a puzzle in each grade that, over time, will form one big picture. At a curricular or instructional level, texts—within and across grade levels—need to be selected around topics or themes that systematically develop the knowledge base of students. ” © 2012 Core Knowledge Foundation.

Why Staying on Topic Matters It provides context and repetition that foster implicit learning of vocabulary: • Most vocabulary is learned implicitly. • Word learning is most efficient when the reader (listener) already understands the context well. • Tiny gains on a dozen words is more efficient than large gains on just one word at a time. © 2012 Core Knowledge Foundation.

Activity: The Power of Vocabulary • Take one minute to write down as many words as you can related to a personal hobby or subject in which you are an expert. • Write down every single thing you think of—don’t filter. © 2012 Core Knowledge Foundation.

The Power of Vocabulary Words are not just words. They are the nexus – the interface – between communication and thought. When we read, it is through words that we build, refine, and modify our knowledge. What makes vocabulary valuable and important is not the words themselves so much as the understandings they afford. – Marilyn Jaeger Adams (2009), p. 180 © 2012 Core Knowledge Foundation.

Message from Research • A network of words makes it easier to process what you hear or read. • The power of vocabulary is not in familiarity with the individual word itself, as it is in the web of connections you build towards that word. © 2012 Core Knowledge Foundation.

Activity: Add to the Web As a table, examine the next story in the Anthology, “Royal Family” • • Have one person read it aloud. Write down words you hear that would be added to the web. After reading a paragraph, look at the list and work these words into the web. Build connections among words that relate, that are synonyms or antonyms, that are exemplars, or categories to words in the web.
