Using Online Dictionaries To Help Our Students Understand New Vocabulary Words

Wondering how you can help your students figure out words they don’t understand? 

In this episode of SLP Coffee Talk, I’m sharing three online tools that you can use as online dictionaries to help your students when they come across those new vocabulary words that they don’t quite understand. Learning new words can be fun for students when they use these tools! 

Topics covered in this episode include:

• Why this is an important skill for students to learn
• Why just knowing the definition of a word isn’t enough for our students
• What these tools are and how they help our students learn the words
• How these tools help students learn how to advocate for themselves

New vocabulary doesn’t have to be scary! Tune in to hear my favorite ways to make it fun for your students!
