"Michael Graves shows once again why he is one of our leading lights in vocabulary instruction.”

, Stanford University, School of Education
“Does the world need another book on vocabulary instruction? Yes, it needs this one, for no other text available addresses in detail how teachers can select, teach, and assess the meanings of specific words.”
— From the Foreword by
James F. Baumann
, University of Wyoming
“This comprehensive and practical resource dives into the heart of word learning and demonstrates how to maximize the benefits of teaching individual words. Dr. Graves skillfully highlights concrete examples of vocabulary instruction as rich and powerful tools that can be easily incorporated into a variety of educational settings. I highly recommend it.”

“Teaching Individual Words
is a must-have book for any educator's bookshelf. In addition to clear models for instruction, it makes the often neglected point that teachers must also use sophisticated language themselves in order to encourage youngsters to do the same. Dr. Graves's readable style and practical knowledge make this book easy to use and sure to have an impact.”
