grow a word tree in your classroom

word trees can be a great addition to any classroom, at home or abroad. a good way to display key vocabulary, word trees help to create a routine within the classroom. keep the word tree simple by just displaying current vocabulary, or let the tree grow as students increase their word banks; either way, word trees really help to create a fun learning environment.

word trees are a great way to display vocabulary

 

allow your word tree to become an interactive addition to the classroom; attach the words using velcro and use them to build sentences on the board. for younger learners, create a blending tree instead of a word tree. the word tree is an easily adaptable resource that can be tailored to suit any classroom.

be sure to modify the display for each season to create another discussion point within the classroom.
