Note: Explain that you are going to write down what students say,

but that they are not expected to be able to read what you write

because they are still learning all the rules for decoding. Tell them it is

important for you to remember what they have said, and that you will

read the words to them.

5. Tell me what you think of when you hear the word leap.
   [For words related to leap—like puddle, playground, and playing—
   write these words at the top and bottom of leap and use yellow lines
   to connect these words to the center. For words that have similar
   meaning to leap—like jump, jump off, spring—write these words to the
   left of leap and use green lines to connect these words to the center.]


6. Tell me what you think is the opposite of leap.
   [For words that have opposite senses to leap—like sit, lying down,
   walk—write these words to the right of leap and use red lines to
   connect these words to the center.]


7. If you have not already done this, act out the differences between
   walk, hop, skip, jump, and leap.


8. Tell your partner what leap means, using what you have learned from
   the Word Web. Try to use complete sentences.
   [Throughout this domain, encourage students to continue thinking
   about the word leap and add additional words that are related to,
   similar to, and opposite of leap as they arise.]
