Welcome to

Owning Words for Literacy

I am glad you are here!  To consider one of the reasons why this site is important, read Steven Stahl's quote: 

"Vocabulary knowledge is knowledge; the knowledge of a word not only implies a definition, but also implies how that word fits into the world."

Please explore this website to see what is available for you and your students.  When you make sure your students OWN words, you have made sure they have knowledge (& vice versa). 

And again, welcome to the site!
