  1. Few activities are as delightful as learning new vocabulary

  2. LEARNING NEW WORDS  Vocabulary building is a constant process of evolution.  Vocabulary building is similar to using building blocks to create a strong structure.  You always start with the base which has to be the strongest to carry structures over it.   Let’s understand how words influence the children’s minds and brush up the process of building vocabu-

  3. One word at a time:  Children start guessing the meaning of a word the moment we speak it in front of them.  They understand those lovely words with which we care for them and are very fond of those words.  Repeating those words with similar emotions helps chil dren under stand their meaning. Words mean the world:  Researchers suggest that children easily associate objects with their names.  They look at those words having written names with greater interest, seeking new information for the object in front of them.

  4. Naming as conquering:  Names of different objects, people, animals and events are a rich way of extending communication with children.  The child shows the first step of identification of anything, say a pet cat, by calling it by its name.  Upon receiving response, the confidence and interest levels of children to learn more words increases. “That thing” syndrome:  Lack of sufficient reading has made even parents struggle for words.  Addressing an object, a feeling or a place as “that thing” is a common but destructive habit among parents.

  5. “No”, “Mom” and “Dad”:  We often don’t realize that constant refusal as a response to a child’s demands impacts his/her vocabulary too.  Parents should work out a way to explain their refusal in short, complete sentences so that children try to grasp their meanings too. Repeat, use new words:  Mindfully reuse a few words in interactions with your family so that the children register these words along with their meanings.

  6. Limit adding new words to 5:  Don’t overwhelm children with as many words as you can in a week.  They need time to distinguish among the meanings of dif ferent words and totally understand their meanings. Use words with contextual clues:  Obviously cannot use the dictionary to explain what certain words mean to such small children.  So use contextual clues to give examples of words with nearest meanings.

  7. Express words with action:  If you’re teaching the word ‘run’, enact the process before children to help them understand better.  Expressive explanations register in children’s memory as long-lasting information.
