A Vocabulary Vine is designed to be a sister resource to a Writing Root and Spelling Seed. It sits within our wider Teach Through a Text approach by explicitly identifying vocabulary from the book and providing additional opportunities for paired, small group and whole class experimentation with this vocabulary in context. Vocabulary Vines further complement spelling development too through exploration of the morphology (word structure) and etymology (origins) of words. They also provide oracy opportunities through a focus on talk tasks and on oral sentence construction. They are designed for short burst oral and vocabulary development.

It's an absolute privilege to be working with such talented and instinctive professionals who put their enthusiasm for literacy and children's learning at the very centre of what they do. I've witnessed the infectious passion they have for literature and language being passed to teachers, and onto the pupils. There are few other programmes I have worked with that have been as inspiring.
