We Answered:

Some techniques to teach vocabulary:
Teachers use various methods to teach vocabulary. Regardless of the method, the key to
learning the terms is reinforcement.
- write the definition or use the word in a sentence.
- use of realia. It’s done by bringing real objects to the classroom like postcards, book,
pen, schoolbag, vegetables and everything that is worth to be brought to the
classroom.
- pictures: this is very effective in the way that it facilitate the process of learning
for kids. You can teach them, for example, animals only through showing them
pictures of animals
- context: though challenging sometimes. It is really a good technique especially when
it comes to abstract words. Read the word in context, explain its meaning
- mime and pantomime: it is done through gestures and facial expressions and also via
actions.
- Crossword puzzle completion using several vocabulary words.
- Match the word to its definition in matching sets.
