Some key points from research
◦ Use direction instruction for teaching vocabulary◦ Help students develop strategic communicative competence
◦ paraphrasing & expressions such as What is the word for…? ◦ Present vocabulary in context◦ Practice activities: controlled practice (listen and repeat, matching, cloze) to
activities that allow students to use the target words in meaningful, personalized ways
◦ Make time for review in a systematic way with repetition (remember 5 – 20 or more exposures) and recycling
◦ Forgetting occurs soon after learning – review soon after teaching◦ Competitive fun review (games) – motivational, forces faster retrieval ◦ Writing vocabulary in own sentences strengthens memory of target
vocabulary through generative processing
