About this resource

This packet is perfect for newcomers or long-term ESL students, this vocabulary packet includes 1 version of the clothing vocabulary packet. This PDF is ready to print. :)

Here is what's included in this packet:

-- 25-word picture dictionary

-- word/picture matching exercise

-- crossword puzzle

-- word search w/ picture labelling

-- fill in the blanks

-- 5 different picture BINGO cards

-- 5 different word BINGO cards

I have used this resource personally in my middle school Newcomers ESL class with students who have been living in the country less than 2 years, learning English for the first time. This was typically one of their independent work stations and I would use a different packet each week. Then the BINGO cards found in each packet were used at the small group table.

**I've also used this as a beginning of the day activity ( morning work) in early elementary classrooms depending on the packet,

OR

**As elementary sub plans - print and leave the packet for them to complete in their groups.
