"I read this for a profession development book group that is coming up. It had some great ideas for teaching vocabulary. It debunks the "learn from context" theory and suggests ways for explicit instruction along with tips on which words to pick. Highly recommended. I'm going to try some of the tips in my class."

"Concise yet thorough, this book has lots of strategies for vocabulary instruction, but it's much more than a list of activities. It provides explanation for both what works and what doesn't, simply and clearly summarizing current research."
