Teaching Vocabulary Through Integrated Curriculum Improves Reading Comprehension, Linda Carol Cox

Theses Digitization Project

This investigation was designed to determine if teaching vocabulary through integrating English and Social Studies curricula would provide tenth grade students who are poor readers with strategies to improve their reading comprehension. The strategies used were designed to support struggling readers and English language development students to connect denotative and connotative meanings of words found in the novel Animal Farm to their social studies class' content.
