Common mistakes
Misconceptions students bring to vocabulary
Specific errors to watch for when reviewing student work — pulled from classroom research and teacher reports.
Assuming a word has only one meaning regardless of context.
What to teach instead: Most words shift meaning by context. Re-read the sentence to find the intended sense.
'Bank' could be a riverbank or a financial institution.
Mistaking similar-sounding words for synonyms.
What to teach instead: Words that sound alike (homophones) often have very different meanings.
'Affect' (to influence) vs. 'effect' (a result).
Treating connotation and denotation as the same.
What to teach instead: Denotation is the dictionary meaning; connotation is the emotional weight. Choose words with both in mind.
