We Beat The Street Chapter Vocabulary Words

ABOUT THIS RESOURCE

★ Text - We Beat The Street

★ Words Defined (by chapter)

★ Print and Digital

★ 10 pages / 312 words student-friendly defined

This resource includes:

★ 10 pages of 312 Defined Words

*******************************

We Beat the Street Vocabulary Words were selected from each chapter of the book and defined in student-friendly terms. Vocabulary words and their definitions are grouped by chapters. Each vocabulary word is accompanied by the page number and its definition.

✅ This is a great resource for students who need some words defined to enhance their comprehension of the reading. While reading the book, students can refer to the vocabulary packet anytime they come across unfamiliar words. They will have complete access to word meanings as they read to support and enhance comprehension. This also saves "dictionary time."

✅ This can serve as a differentiation tool for students who need additional support in reading comprehension. Another great idea is asking students to incorporate some of these words in their writing responses/assignments.

✅ This resource is also included in Google Slides in case you want to share it with your students digitally!

WHAT'S INCLUDED

I've included various prompts for learners to use who want to enrich their reading and go deeper. It can be difficult to remember all that's going on with the plot, and to not disrupt the reading when new words pass our view, so I've created a template for readers who like to notate their reading. They can do so while they read, or it can turn into almost a test of their memory after they finish a book!
