2 WORD STUDY ACTIVITY

Word Study Activity

Students will be introduced to a new set of vocabulary words every week with their new

story. I will introduce the meaning of the vocabulary words to the students as a whole group. I

will say the words out loud and then use them in a sentence for the students. One word we will

focus on this week is delicious. I will tell the children that food that is delicious tastes very good.

I will ask the students about a food that they think is delicious. In addition, I will ask them to find

a word on the word wall that has the same meaning as delicious. We will use context clues in our

story to help us figure out the meaning of the word delicious. I will then add this word along with

the other vocabulary words for this week to our word wall for the students to see.

Another activity I will do with the students is have them write the word delicious on a

piece of paper and then use it in a sentence. They could draw a picture to go with their sentence.

If there is extra time during the week, I would also play a vocabulary bingo game with the

students. They would each have a game card with all of the vocabulary words for the week in

front of them. As I read the definition of each vocabulary word, they would have to find the word

it corresponds with on their card. If they get three to five words in a row, they could raise their

hand and say “bingo”. I would then have them tell me what each word means. By playing this

game, I would feel confident that the students know the meaning of the word delicious. I feel that

games are a fun way to encourage language and vocabulary development.
