Vocabulary Learning Tips
Learning new vocabulary is an important part of learning to be a good reader. Remember that the letter C in
ACTIVE Skills for Reading
reminds us to
cultivate
vocabulary.
1
Decide if the word is worth learning now
As you read, you will find many words you do not know. You will slow your reading fluency if you stop at
every new word. For example, you should stop to find out the meaning of a new word if:
a. you read the same word many times.
b. the word appears in the heading of a passage, or in the topic sentence of a paragraph-the sentence
that gives the main idea of the paragraph.
2
Record information about new words you decide to learn
Keep a vocabulary notebook in which you write words you want to remember. Complete the following
information for words that you think are important to learn:
New word
Translation
Part of speech
Sentence where found
healthy
1tt•
adjective
Oliver is well-known for sharing his secrets of cooking healthy food.
I exercise
to
stay flt and healthy.
3
learn words from the same family
For many important words in English that you will want to learn, the word is part of a word family. As you learn
new words, learn words in the family from other parts of speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, etc.).
Noun
Verb
Adjective
C
)
Adverb
happiness
happy
happily
4
learn words that go with the key word you are learning
When we learn new words, it is important to learn what other words are frequently used with them. These
are called collocations. Here is an example from a student's notebook.
6
take
goon
a
long
two-week
short
summer
school
vacation
next week
in Italy
with my family
by myself
5
Create a word web
A word web is a picture that helps you connect words together and helps you increase your vocabulary.
Here is a word web for the word
frightened:
a
frightened child
easily frightened
terribly frightened ----..
calm
6
Memorize common prefixes, roots, and suffixes
frightening (adj)
fright (n)
scared
Many English words can be divided into different parts. We call these parts
prefixes, roots,
and
suffixes.
A
prefix
comes at the beginning of a word, a
suffix
comes at the end of a word, and the
root
is the main part
of the word. In your vocabulary notebook, make a list of prefixes and suffixes as you come across them. On
page 175 there is a list of prefixes and suffixes in this book. For example, look at the word
unhappily.
prefix: un- (meaning
not)
suffix: -ly (meaning an adverb)
unhappily
-------
root:
happy
7
Regularly review your vocabulary notebook
You should review the words in your vocabulary notebook very often. The more often you review your list of
new words, the sooner you will be able to recognize the words when you see them during reading. Set up a
schedule to go over the words you are learning.
