Look at Cunningham's 4 blocks book on Working with Words. It will help you get started on how to use the word wall. I'm moving to second grade next year but I can tell you that my first graders loved chanting and writing their word wall words on a daily basis and the activities that we did with them. If you can't get your hands on a book, google it. I think you might find a lot of information from the internet.

We are required to have one but I don't feel that I use mine to it's fullest potential. Do you use vocabulary from your literature books or spelling demons, etc. Vocabulary is a weakness in my room and I need to really focus on it this year!
