Y - T As a Special Education teacher, I know how important it is for my students to both read and hear the spoken words. I have students in my room from grades 2nd through 7th at the same time doing reading at different levels. Whenever I am reading to a group and a new word comes up, I stop everyone and discuss it with everyone to increase all my students vocabulary. I know it is important for all ages to increase their vocabulary.
Inferences is one of the most difficult for my students to relate to things. I make sure and relate things to them that are familiar to their surroundings. I make sure we do group discussions and include all the students. In this manner, everyone learns from each other.

I find that my (first grade) students really enjoy and seem to remember new words better when I can "act them out" as I'm reading with them. Of course, this works better with some words than with others.
