Okay, So the activity that I chose for the vocabulary

activity waas find that word and what it is is

not so much really an activity as something that you

would dio over the course of the entire school year.

Really? Um, it's something that you would do whenever students

are exposed to a new word, Um, or maybe the

use of a word that they already know.

But it's used in a sentence in a way that

they didn't know.

So whenever you're reading something new or watching a new

video, maybe it's a new science video or something.

You're watching, and they've never heard of certain words said

that way.

Um, the student would jot down the entire sentence that

the word is used in, so that's a little bit

different than all the other vocab activities that I've been

exposed to.

So instead of just writing down a word that they

don't know in like a word journal, um, they're going

to write down the entire sentence and then keep that

and then as a class, maybe once or twice a

week during like morning meeting or afternoon meeting or whatever,

whenever you guys were in a class setting.

Um, have the student read through the entire sentence that

they found that they didn't understand or didn't understand the

word and have them, or and then, I guess, have

a class discussion about it.

So I talked to the students about where they heard

this word, how it was used with the context.

Um, if any other student has heard that word said

in that context, or if none of the students have

another good thing to do during this would be to

write it out on the board.

So right, the sentence, as they say, the sentence, um,

or they wrote it down that way.

You guys can all look at it, go over it,

see the word, really get a visual.

Um, so another thing.

There's also variations.

So there's different kind of activities that you could do

along with it.

So you can turn this into a game so or

like a competition, I guess eso the teacher would decide

what sentences get points on how many points.

So maybe if they hear the word or sentence in

a conversation, that's one point.

But if they were to see the sentence in a

book then they would get two points and so on

and so forth.

So you guys can come up with your own point

system. And then during the ceremonies, Then during the class

meeting where you would all talk about this, you would

give those points and keep those points recorded, maybe up

on the board, or don't necessarily have show the points.

But it would be that competition factor.

Another thing would be to have a journal so all

of the students would have a word journal or find

that we're a journal and they would write out the

sentences that they found in this journal.

And then they would all take those journals to the

circle. The meeting, Um, and not only would they share

those then with their classmates, but they could also write

down what their classmates found, maybe a sentence that one

of their classmates found that they didn't understand either.

They saw word in it that they didn't understand either.

Have never seen it being used in that context.

They can then write that down in their own journals,

so it's a good way Teoh not only be able

to remember for circle time what that sentence waas, but

they can also collect new ones to refer back to

later on as well.

So that's another good way to do that.

Um, so, yeah, so this is a good activity, like

I said, all year long to use.

And it's not so much as activity is like a

word collector.

Maybe you could even call that.

So you're collecting not only words but also sentences.

And it's a good way for students to really learn

and understand those different words in sentences that they might

not understand, um, in any other way, So we think

that's it.
