Are there any teachers experienced in teaching vocabulary that can give me some 
advice? After teaching the book 'StoryClub" last year to my 5th graders, I find 
that as 6th graders using the book 'Winner' they barely remember any of the 
words. What methods and techniques are there to have the words stick? I don't 
find that vocabulary quizzes and tests work as they just memorize the words and 
forget them later on.
Any advice?
 
Thanks in advance,
