Mrs Wordsmith materials are designed to be flexible, so that teachers can use them according to the needs of their students.
We recommend displaying a new word every day somewhere visible around the classroom. Encourage students to talk about the illustration and the meaning of the word.
If using the R-r-ready for School Word a Day, then it can be helpful to discuss any social, emotional, or communication issues relevant to the word.
If using the Storyteller's Word a Day, then encourage students to make a note of new vocabulary and use it in their writing tasks.
