    Each year students must learn and use thousands of new words in their various subjectdiscipline studies. They are required to perform complex tasks using new vocabulary. The useof a word wall in a classroom can be a highly effective teaching strategy to improve literacyskills. Word wall activities encourage active student participation. Gestures, such as pointing tokey words during a lesson, offer visual reinforcement which can be very helpful for students.Word wall activities engage students while they learn key vocabulary, whether it be learning toexplain a word, to compare it to other key concepts, or to spell it.
