Vocabulary

     Vocabulary is an important part of a student's education.  I remember as a kid that when writing a paper or something the teacher would always ask us to use good vocabulary, or when reading a book there would be words that I did not know that I would have to get help with from the teacher.  Building a student's vocabulary can help them become better readers, and there are many different activities that teachers can engage their students in to improve their vocabulary.  Here are some examples...
                                               Awesome vocabulary activity!
Vocabulary 1- Ice Cream Words: Students start by writing a common word on the ice cream cone. Students can now look up synonyms for these words. Creating a large ice cream cone with words that can replace the common words. Students can start off with a word they know at the bottom and look up words that can mean the same thing.
