Description
Increase students' vocabulary skills through location word webs that teach both convergent and divergent naming skills. Understanding of how words relate to one another facilitates the learning of new vocab as students make connections to words they already know. Identifying these relationships can also aide in efficient word finding skills as students sort through their mental "file system" to retrieve the word they're looking for. This deck includes 12 different word webs (see the preview for an example!). Each word web gives 3 different objects and then provides space in the center of the web to name the common location (convergent naming). Next, students will think of 3 more words that also have the same location and write them in additional branches of the web (divergent naming). Note: This is not a self-checking deck, but rather it is intended to be used as a teaching & learning tool with the support of SLP/educator completing the cards along with the student(s). A suggested response is provided for the location name in a hidden tab that can be moved into the screen. Responses for additional group members are not included as the possibilities are almost endless! Encourage students to share their reasoning as you discuss other words that could be added to each word web.
