I would use this vocabulary strategy as something students could do when they are done working on an assignment or finish something early. Because there are different categories of words, I feel as though independent practice with these would be great. I could also see doing a few of these with the students each morning as a class. It could become part of the routine and students would be able to expand their vocabulary each day.

I would use this strategy in my class if it was a primary grade or for an ELL student or struggling student. I would have my students work independently on iPads or computers and allow them to play this game. I would check in with students to casually assess and monitor how they are doing on the questions. It would be a great resource for ELL students to learn more of the English language.

There are a few benefits that are associated with this vocabulary strategy. To begin, it is very kid friendly. It uses the characters from the show, "Arthur," which makes it very appealing to students. Additionally, the choice that does not belong may challenge
the student. Another benefit for this strategy is that it is very fun. It does not seem boring, like a chore, or homework that most students tend to dread. Rather, it is a fun and appealing game that I could see many students enjoying.

This vocabulary game has students assess four words and choose the one that does not belong. For example, there may be the words "chicken" "duck" "turkey" and "turtle" posted. Students would then select "turtle" as the one that does not belong. It is aimed at lower grades who are building their general vocabulary.

I would use this strategy as a review for the end of a unit. I could see myself sometimes making the quizzes for the students to complete for review and other times, I could see my students making the reviews for one another. Additionally, it could be a fun tool to pull up on the SMART board and go through every once and awhile to stay up to date on vocabulary.

I would use this strategy when introducing a new unit of study for a literacy unit. For example, if the unit of study was weather, I would compile a list of different websites, videos, etc, that are student friendly and post them on the class website. Next, as I guided exploration, I would have the students follow along as we explored the weather links together. I would have the students point out vocabulary and I would record our list on a website such as this one, so we could keep track of important words. Students will begin to see these words used again and again in different contexts, helping them feel more comfortable with them.

There are many benefits that are associated with using this strategy. To begin, students engage easily in technology. By giving them the opportunity to explore different websites, videos, articles, and pictures, students are exposed to the new vocabulary by using something in which they love, technology. Additionally, the students are exposed to the vocabulary in many different ways. It may be printed with a definition on website, but on another, someone may be talking about the vocabulary word in a video. It is appealing to many different types of learners.

By looking through the websites, students will gain knowledge about words through multiple exposures in different contexts and through different edina including reading, viewing, writing and conversation.
