Word Talk Can HelpWhen a child comes to a word they don’t
know, STOP! DON’T just supply the word!Word Talk! Explain how YOU know what that
word is. (What rule or strategy did you use to figure out that word? What rule did you bend/break? )
Emphasize being flexible with letter sounds , word chunks, and applying the “rules”.
