 Re: Handling vocabulary
Here's what I do for my Beginning High students, when we use the Oxford Picture Dictionary. Say that they are going to learn the vocabulary for fruit. I give the students X number of minutes to copy the words. I expect that many of them will also write translations in their notebooks. After time is called, we do a time of listen and repeat, and that's when they learn pronunciation.
I would never begin with a matching exercise, when the students have not even learned the words. Matching exercises are good for later use. |
