Third Grade. Along with our storytelling method, we use the following core vocabulary and the top 100 high-frequency word list to teach real language skills. The result is that students comprehend much more than these simple word lists. Output, or spoken and written language, are a result, but certainly not the emphasis in the early years, just as all of our first language experiences. This year we begin stories about a crazy cat named Gabi. Students begin to read more in 3rd grade.
