When and where you found the word:
During my reading of chapter 1 "Wordwise and Content Rich" by Douglas Fisher and Nancy Frey I read about this term. I already had heard about it from previous classes I have taken in Literacy. I was in my apartment when I found it, reading our homework.
What the word means in the context that it is being used:
On page 15-17 of chapter 1 "Wordwise and Content Rich" by Fisher and Frey it is defined as 5 big ideas:
1. Make it intentional
2. Make it transparent
3. Make it usable
4. Make it personal
5. Make it a priority
Your level of familiarity with the word:
I am somewhat familiar with this word and would like to get more familiar with it so that I can choose academic vocabulary that is important for my students to know.
Reflective commentary:
I think that this is an important phrase to know and understand. I understand about tier 1 words-everyday words, tier3 words-technical words specific to content words and I understand the concept of tier 2 words-words that appear often in reading yet are not always known to students and appear across content areas. I would like to get to know about this model better.
