This is a Vocabulary Vine for Robot Girl by Malorie Blackman

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.

Some Vocabulary Vines for longer texts include an additional resource called a Forest of Words. This resource offers extra vocabulary drawn from throughout the text, which has been identified as having strong potential for further language exploration. The words or phrases in the Forest of Words are grouped by chapter.  Words that are also featured in the main Vocabulary Vine resource are highlighted within the Forest of Words for easy reference.
