Vocabulary Worksheets

Here are 5 new activities you can use for teaching vocabulary in your class. I've used some of these for whole group activities and some of them I've had small groups work on. All of these can also be done by students individually.

*You will need dice for one of the activities but I've used electronic an electronic die when I couldn't find one.

5 Worksheets:

-Vocabulary Tri-fold pamphlet w/ a front and back. Students fill in the 5 slots with things like word, def, pic, personal connection, How familiar. 6th slot is empty. Teacher can write in another question of their choosing. (I often add synonym and/or antonym)

-Roll-the-Dice Vocab Page. Students write a vocabulary list then roll the dice to see what they have to do- define it, use it in a sentence, write a synonym, write an antonym, draw it, or act it out.

-Vocabulary Cube- students cut out and fill out each of the boxes with vocab questions.

-Word/Definition Brainstorm. Students can fill this out in pencil and revise as they get actual definitions.

-While you Read Vocab is a page where students can write the vocab list, predict the meaning then after reading they adjust the meaning based on what they've read.
