Chapter 9 Blog

aptitude hypothesis-- refers to the "prediction of how well, relative to other individuals, an individual can learn a foreign language in a given amount of time and under given conditions.

knowledge hypothesis-- Within this framework, word-to-text integration processes can serve as a model for the study of local comprehension processes, that is, those that make sense out of short stretches of text. These processes require linkage between the word identification system and the comprehension system, with the lexicon in the linking role.

Vocabulary instruction is one reading instruction which there is minimal controversy. Educators agree that it is possible to extend students knowledge of word meaning and it is important to do so because of the relationship between this knowledge and reading comprehension. As a teacher I could use the opportunity to provide and extend children's vocabulary knowledge and to develop their interest and motivation to want to learn words and to monitor their own vocabulary learning.
