I just tell kids what words like this mean without any special teaching. How do I teach? Catherine Snow when she presents the following on what teachers need to teach: 26 letters of the alphabet 44 phonemes 75, words It is clear that teachers must teach the sounds and letters systematically and explicitly — the challenge is how to teach 75, words.
Often, it is best to pre-teach key words. Wide reading: Reading of texts helps expose students to many words including rare words — not high in frequency but high in important meaning. Words In Context: Students will learn most new words in the context of reading and writing. The two best ways I can think of to enrich the context for word learning is to read and discuss books.

Teacher Tips and Strategies Vocabulary.
Vocabulary plays an important role in oral language development and early literacy Hill, Paris identifies vocabulary as one of the unconstrained skills, meaning that it is a skill that we continue to develop over our life span. This knowledge can be transferred to English by using translation as a learning process.
Translation alone is not a sufficient strategy to help students learn how to use new vocabulary. Students require ongoing support to infer the meaning of words using contextual clues, and to break words into morphemes and understand how each part relates to the meaning of the word. During the translation process, students may notice gaps in their vocabulary, and become aware of the differences of meaning between words and grammatical structures in different languages.
Students who speak English as a first language may be able to use these strategies with the vocabulary that they are learning in school. Otherwise, the teacher can ask students to identify and explain any differences between their languages and English.

Words are categorised into grammatical forms or word classes including the commonly known nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, as well as determiners, prepositions, conjunctions.
Different word classes have different functions in terms of their grammar including morphology, and syntax. Students need to develop understandings of different types of words, as part of their metalinguistic awareness knowing how language and literacy works, and the words that describe these phenomena. When introducing vocabulary it is crucial for students to know the type or class of word it is.
If ever students are unsure, they can be encouraged to check a paper or online dictionary, which will always provide the word class in the listing.
Below is a table which summarises each word class or form , including their function, examples, and any inflectional or derivational morphemes that attach to these.
