Students who achieve this goal (and who have mastered their previous vocabulary lists for Grades 1-4) will be reading somewhat above 6.0 grade level and typically score in the top 10% on 5th Grade national reading tests (such as the CTBSand Stanford Achievement Test) .  \nA total of 700 new words are introduced in the Grade 5 Vocabulary List (20 words per week for 35 weeks) . The first week reviews a cross sample of 50 Grade 4 words that represent the main phonics and reading rule categories. Each subsequent week introduces 20 new vocabulary words.  \nWord of the Day – “WD”  \nIn many of the weekly lists of 20 words, you will encounter one word next to the letters“WD.” This represents “Word of the Day” and is listed in this manner because it is a deviation from the daily phonics or reading rule category and typically requires extra attention for memorization. For example, in the Week 5 Lesson, the WD word is “source.”Since the “ou” in source does not make its typical sound (as in loud), it is listed here asthe Word of the Day.  \nGrade 5 Vocabulary – Significantly Increased Difficulty  \nWhile our reading vocabulary lists for Grades 3 and 4 introduce a greater number of words per week than the Grade 5 list (28 vs. 20), it is important to decrease the number of weekly words introduced in the Grade 5 list. This is done since the words are considerably more complex and used less often in normal everyday conversation. Because of this decreased frequency in conversation – books – etc. , the words are not as“familiar” to students, and therefore, require considerably more mental energy for learning, since word definitions now must also be memorized along with just basic word reading. By lowering the number of words introduced each week from 28 to 20, we are able to keep the amount of new information introduced within the learning ability of an average 5th grade student, while also insuring students maintain excellent vocabulary progress for remaining at (or above) Grade level throughout the year.  \nSelection of Grade 5 Vocabulary Words  \nThe Grade 5 vocabulary list words were selected from the Houghton Mifflin 5th Grade Literature book ( which covers a wide sample of literature topics) along with the most frequently used vocabulary from Houghton Mifflin’s 5th Grade Social Studies program. Additional key vocabulary used in national standardized reading tests ( i.e. the Stanford Achievement Test) have also been added to the Grade 5 list.  \nSelection of the Grade 5 vocabulary was completed by using a specially developed Word Frequency Computer Program which ranks words in order from “most-common” to “leastcommon” – as they appeared in the Grade 5 textbooks. We then used our special“delete” program that automatically removes all reading words that appeared in our Grades 1-4 vocabulary lists, thereby eliminating unplanned duplication. This results in a highly efficient list of new vocabulary words that occur with greatest frequency in Grade 5 textbooks and tests.  \nAfter identifying these priority words for Grade 5, we then organized words according to common vowel sound and reading-rule categories. This strategy has proven itself as a vastly superior technique for achieving faster long-term “permanent” memorization of reading vocabulary content.  \nAre My Students Ready for Grade 5 Vocabulary?  \nIf you are a 5th Grade teacher in an average socioeconomic setting, then proceeding with this list is a logical strategy. Even if not all students are reading at a 5.0 Reading Level, you can use our Grade 4 (or Grade 3) Student Reading Wall strategies for quickly improving reading ability in order to bring them up to a 5.0 level. As a quick assessment, you can test students on the Grade 4 Review words listed for Week 1 in the Gra","cbCaijdXhhJYpNNz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijdXhhJYpNNz","pdf",150588,"English","# Introduction\n## Word of the Day (WD)\n## Grade 5 Vocabulary: Significantly Increased Difficulty\n## Selection of Grade 5 Vocabulary Words\n## Are My Students Ready for Grade 5 Vocabulary?\n## Determining Student Readiness\n## The Role of the Classroom Teacher","[{\"question\":\"How many new vocabulary words are introduced in the Grade 5 list, and over how many weeks?\",\"answer\":\"The program introduces 700 new words over 35 weeks, at a rate of 20 words per week.\"},{\"question\":\"What does “WD” mean in the weekly word lists?\",\"answer\":\"“WD” stands for “Word of the Day.” The word is listed that way because it is a deviation from the daily phonics or reading-rule category and typically requires extra attention for memorization.\"},{\"question\":\"How can a teacher assess whether students are ready for Grade 5 vocabulary?\",\"answer\":\"Use the Week 1 Grade 5 cross-section of 50 Grade 4 review words as a quick assessment.
