What Are The Three Tiers of Vocabulary?
For instructional purposes, vocabulary words are sorted into three tiers: Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3. The illustration below shows the three tiers of vocabulary. As you can see, we move from Tier 1 on the bottom of the triangle up to Tier 3 at the top of the triangle. What is the difference between each vocabulary tier? The image below gives a quic...
Tier 1 Vocabulary
Tier 1 vocabulary words consist of basic, familiar words. These words are commonly used by most students in everyday conversation. Students have the highest exposure with Tier 1 words. In fact, children are exposed to Tier 1 words from an early age, and as a result, they become easily familiar with this set of words. Perhaps the easiest way to thin...
Tier 2 Vocabulary
Tier 2 vocabulary words are robust, high-frequency words that students encounter across the content areas. They are not widely used in speech and daily conversation. Unlike Tier 1 words, Tier 2 words are not usually learned naturally or independently because students do not hear or use them in conversation. A key point to understand is that Tier 2 ...
Tier 3 Vocabulary
Tier 3 vocabulary words are low-frequency words. These words are content specific and have distinct meanings and purposes. Examples of Tier 3 words are listed in the image below. Tier 3 words like pterodactyl, aorta, thesis, isosceles, osmosis, electrolyte, photosynthesis, and igneous are notwords we often use in everyday conversations. These words...
Which Tier Should We Focus Instruction on?
Let’s recap what we learned about the three tiers of vocabulary. We learned that Tier 1 vocabulary words are words students come to school knowing and using the most. Therefore, as teachers, we naturally do not (and should not) spend the bulk of our time explicitly teaching the meanings of Tier 1 words. Remember, most students can naturally and ind...
Ways to Focus on Tier 2 Vocabulary
Now that we know the importance of Tier 2 vocabulary words, let’s chat about ways to incorporate these words into our daily routine! Several years ago, I created an engaging and easy-to-follow vocabulary routine for kindergarten, first-grade, and second-gradeteachers! I often get asked, “Where did the words in each set come from?” The words I chose...
Synonyms and Shades of Meaning
We can expose students to multiple Tier 2 words by spending time on the synonyms and antonyms for Tier 2 words. When we teach our students even three to five Tier 2 words, we can actually expose them to up to TWENTY Tier 2 words throughout the week by discussing the synonyms associated with these words, and their shades of meaning. The image below ...
Multiple Meanings and Multiple Contexts
As we learned in this post, many Tier 2 words have multiple meanings. It’s important to explicitly point out these multiple meanings and help students understand how they are used in various contexts. Each week’s vocabulary lessons in my curriculum includes a passage AND a read aloud! The read aloud (often presented on Day 2 each week) uses the Tie...
Tier 2 Vocabulary Word Play
Pointing Tier 2 words out in the books you read and allowing students to “play” with words is also an important part of vocabulary instruction. We want our students to have a lot of opportunities for word play and practice using the words in their daily discussions. Examples of word play games include: 1. songs 2. art games 3. charades 4. chants 5....
What are Tier 3 and Tier 2 words?
Tier 3 words: technical, subject-specific vocabulary. Tier 2 words are the key here. It’s important we don’t neglect these words, not only because learners are less likely to encounter them, but also because they will empower learners to access a higher level of language with which they can communicate and understand ideas across the curriculum.
What are the three tiers of vocabulary?
Well, Isabel Beck et al gave us a handy system that allows us to answer this question. In her research, she splits the words into three tiers, which are categorised as so: Tier 1 words: common, everyday words that students are likely to encounter with or without our intervention. Tier 2 words: higher-level vocabulary that is less common.
What are the three components of a Tier I term?
This should be done in a systematic fashion that involves three components: 1) the word list and student notebooks, 2) the practical activities, and 3) the video instructional activities. 1. The Word List and Student Notebooks. The Tier I terms are organized into 420 semantic clusters. They are listed in Appendix A at the end of this section.
What is Tier 3 support?
This is typically provided by a campus interventionist who specializes in the area that the student needs support in. Tier 3 support should be customized to meet the student’s specific needs. If Tier 3 support is ineffective, further evaluations may need to be considered.

Vocabulary- Selecting Words to Teach
Introduction
In the middle years there is no formula for choosing which words to teach. What is important is that words
chosen add to comprehension of the text or topic.Beck and McKeown (2002) suggest that when evaluating words as possible candidates for instruction
teachers should consider:How generally useful is the word?
How does the word relate to other words, to the ideas that students know or have been learning?What does the word bring to a text or situation?
Beck & McKeown (1985) suggest that to help identify words for instruction vocabulary can be considered in
three tiers (see table 1). The first tier consists of the most basic words. Words in this tier rarely require
instruction for most students. The second tier contains words that are of high frequency for mature language
users and are found across a variety of content areas. The third tier is made up of words whose frequency is
quite low and often limited to specific content areas. TypeDefinition

A system has been proposed for middle years teachers by Flanigan and Greenwood (2007) which builds on
the three-tier model. They suggest that middle school content teachers need something more specific for
content vocabulary. They have developed a system to help teachers organise, categorise and prioritise the
many types of content words they must teach, generally identified as tier three words in Beck, McKeown and
(2002).This system takes into account the goals of the lesson, the amount of teaching time and depth of knowledge a
word would require, and when in the lesson it would be most profitable to explore a word. -In this framework words are categorised as:
Foot-in-the-
Critical
Words not to teach
Flanigan and Greenwood also identify a set of steps for teachers to follow when choosing vocabulary for
instruction within their framework.Purpose
The teacher will identify and prioritise words for instruction from topic and/or text.Procedure
These steps are summarised in the Planning for Vocabulary Instruction Checklist (see Appendix1).1. Preview text/topic to identify (Tier 2) and content specific words (Tier 3)
When previewing text choose words that:
students must know in order to understand what they read. students are likely to use and encounter frequently. words that are not adequately defined in context. w words students may not know based on structure. These words can then be categorised into Tier 2 and Tier 3 words (see table 1).2. Prioritise Tier 2 words that will be the target for vocabulary instruction
These words could include those that students will: encounter in a range of contexts, have many opportunities to use, and use as part of the sophisticated vocabulary of oral and written language.NSW Centre For Effective Reading Vocabulary |Selecting words to teach

3. Prioritise Tier 3 words that will be the target for vocabulary instruction

words (see Appendix 2). The types of tier 3 content-specific words are described below. words)They are absolutely essential to
