The instructions ask you to discuss the concepts of “breadth” and “depth” of word knowledge. I have discovered that your edition of the text does not use that terminology. To clarify, “breadth” refers to the number of words a child knows and “depth” refers to how well or how much a child knows about each word. Read Chapter 8 in the files and answer the following question. Compare and contrast the concepts “breadth” and “depth” of word knowledge. Be sure to address the following questions in your discussion: 1. What aspect of children’s word knowledge is typically evaluated? and 2. What word-learning strategies contribute to each type of word knowledge?
