Magnetic Reading Vocabulary Lesson.

Vocabulary Support

In Magnetic Reading, students build knowledge about each unit topic by exploring four to five related lessons and reading multiple texts. As students read each new text, they build on the concepts of the previous texts and lessons. These connected texts also allow students to build rich vocabulary around the topic. These Vocabulary Support activities help support vocabulary acquisition through in-depth word exploration with Magnetic Reading’s Building Knowledge with Vocabulary Packs.
