Vocabulary Starter for Middle & High School - Essential Lists, Templates & Guide
By Blooming Through High School
NEED TO TEACH VOCABULARY IN YOUR MIDDLE OR HIGH SCHOOL CLASSROOM AND YOU'RE NOT SURE WHERE TO START?
You came to the right place! I have been teaching for 5+ years, I have my Master's in Education with a focus on Literacy and I didn't know where to start.
So, I went back to everything I learned in my graduate program and re-read everything I could find.
I wrote & designed a student-engaging template to help students in my classroom to deeply internalize a word. I gathered key word lists when I didn't have a word from our daily reading, and thought about how to teach vocabulary so my love of etymology and words could be shared with my 10th graders. I've included all that and a guide to help other teachers get started with implementing and teaching vocabulary in THEIR classrooms.
Is this book for me?
Then this book is for you!
Adaptable to every classroom in every situation, this is more than a fill-in-the-blank activity. Your students will have a guide to build a vocabulary for a lifetime of learning.
WHY TEACH VOCABULARY EXPLICITLY?
Generating curiosity and delight in playing with words supports long-term memory, enhances the connection between orthography and meaning, and develops a disposition which stimulates word consciousness. It also builds vocabulary! All of these are a part of a vocabulary rich classroom environment.

We Beat The Street Chapter Vocabulary Words
ABOUT THIS RESOURCE
★ Text - We Beat The Street
★ Words Defined (by chapter)
★ Print and Digital
★ 10 pages / 312 words student-friendly defined
This resource includes:
★ 10 pages of 312 Defined Words
*******************************
We Beat the Street Vocabulary Words were selected from each chapter of the book and defined in student-friendly terms. Vocabulary words and their definitions are grouped by chapters. Each vocabulary word is accompanied by the page number and its definition.
✅ This is a great resource for students who need some words defined to enhance their comprehension of the reading. While reading the book, students can refer to the vocabulary packet anytime they come across unfamiliar words. They will have complete access to word meanings as they read to support and enhance comprehension. This also saves "dictionary time."
✅ This can serve as a differentiation tool for students who need additional support in reading comprehension. Another great idea is asking students to incorporate some of these words in their writing responses/assignments.
