Overview
Veteran educator Marilee Sprenger explains how to teach the essential, high-frequency words that appear in academic contexts—and reverse the disadvantages of what she calls "word poverty." Drawing on research and experience, Sprenger provides a rich array of engaging strategies to help educators across all content areas and grade levels not only teach students a large quantity of words but also ensure that they know these words well.

- Rehearsal strategies to help students put words into long-term storage.
- Review strategies to help students strengthen their retrieval skills and gain the automaticity needed for reading comprehension.
