For example
- You can make your own crossword puzzles for learners at
http://www.puzzlemaker.com. Learners who like word games would
probably prefer reviewing vocabulary this way rather than using
the traditional matching or drill exercises.
- The papers we used
to discuss tutor traits could be used as a way for
learners to review vocabulary that they have been introduced
to before. You could set up an exercise where the learners must
pair words that are similar (synonyms) or opposite (antonyms)
on a blank grid.
Example of the grid (synonym) at the start of the exercise
Example of the grid (synonym) after the exercise
| big |
large |
| small |
little |
| happy |
cheerful |
| sad |
miserable |
- Vocabulary review could also be accomplished through a more
general classification exercise.
If your learner has finished learning about different types of food, she
could classify the words learned using the following format.
