I spend a great deal of my day teaching vocabulary. Students with a strong vocabulary are more successful. Presidents, CEOs,
and CFOs all have one thing in common. It is a strong vocabulary. I have used a variety of techniques to enhance the student's knowledge. Looking at the Riddles graphic organizer, I know my students would enjoy this activity. The love laughing. I also think using the question starters would help students. I could see using this with vocabulary as well as during a novel study.
I also liked the activity on page 69. It was short and with a new novel might help engage the students. Using it as a springboard and helping students to peek their interest.
I look forward to trying these activities as well as several others that are used in this book.
