EPISODE 28: Vocabulary Activities in Middle School


Listen Later

Vocabulary activities and vocabulary-learning strategies can be as boring as you make them. I will admit it…I KILLED vocabulary in the years past in my middle school language arts class. I inherited a list of disconnected words and was told to have kids write context clues sentences with them. Every. Single. Week.

Well, no more. If you are in a vocab rut like I was, read on to see easy ways to spark creativity in middle school vocabulary-building activities…I promise it can be done!

In this episode, we will discuss:

  • Selecting Vocabulary Lists
  • Vocabulary Lists:  Less is More
  • Activities that do NOT spark creativity
  • Teaching the Words in Vocabulary Building Activities
  • Student Choice for Creativity in Middle School Vocabulary
