Strategy Overview
While in the preliminary stage of introducing vocabulary words, have students match the words to the definition that is supported with an image. This can be done as a game whole group or in pairs.
Strategy in Action
Print out one copy of the vocabulary word list and places photos of the word with the definition around the room. Have students work together to match the photo with the word. Providing visuals promotes word identification and associations to definitions.
Student Example
This activity can be used for students in primary years up to high school. Have students work in pairs using pictures and definitions to find matches. Have students collaborate with other groups to share their thinking.
