Ideas for teaching vocabulary words!

I like the idea of the vocabulary journal that this teacher shares on her blog. I also like incorporating quick play into the review of vocabulary words.

Speaking and Listening

We should use the old treasures CDs to help firm up the listening skills of our students.

We can provide them with a graphic organizer for the story, and as they listen to the story, they can identify the text structure and fill in the organizer.

Then, they can use their organizer to do a summary of the story.


Also, I may also use them for "read alouds" at times.

I like the idea this teacher uses for test review. It reminds me of Bozo's Grand Prize Game.
