STRATEGIES for REINFORCING/REVIEWING vocabulary
[|Quiz, quiz, trade]: Print cards front-back, making sure that the correct pages are aligned. Additional explanation can be added to the answers. Students should show the card (visual) as they read the question aloud (auditory). Correct answer --> celebrate. Incorrect answer --> coach to the correct answer and then celebrate. Be sure students trade cards after they ask/answer both students' questions. Students cannot partner with the same person twice. Works well with upbeat music (steel drums). Students start when the music starts and stop when the music stops.

-I have, who has example: Directions are at the bottom of the document to use with a small group. Usually, I make sure I have one card per student and play as a whole class. Use this as a template and make it fit to your curriculum.

-Matching game or Go Fish example:

-Who Am I? example: Directions are at the bottom of the document to use with a small group but they could be used with the whole class as well. Make as many cards as you need so that each student has one card. I sometimes have students write down each others names and who the person "was" and then check at the end of class.

-Tic Tac Toe: Directions are at the bottom of the document. Have a deck of cards made with definitions and/or vocabulary words to use. Put X's and O's into a baggie and staple to the back of the tic tac toe card so they're (hopefully) never lost.
