I asked Alicia two questions after the assessment:
1. How do you feel this would help students?
(Paraphrase) I really think the visualizing of the memory table would be loved by students. As well as folding the paper with the self-test. That would be ideal. The Word Maps would be a good way to learn at an early age; prefix, suffix, and roots.
2. How would this strategy support teachers in delivering instruction to students?
(Paraphrase) Especially with vocabulary, from what I see it is a lot of, OK. let's write down the word and write down the definition but they don't learn it or touch it again. Students are going to struggle to remember that. There is nothing fun or interesting in doing that. Where as this is totally different. It is something that kids are going to enjoy doing and remember.
