Vocabulary Notes Note-taking:
You are about to see sentences and pictures of vocabulary words. As we look at each word, on the right side of your paper: Write “Student:” and then what YOU think the word means. You will look up dictionary definitions when done. For now, focus
on guessing what the words mean based on the context clues in the sentences and pictures. There are no wrong answers for “Student Definitions” – it’s just to help you remember the definitions, making guesses with your own words.
Purpose: You will use the definitions to later create a vocabulary
game in groups. You will be tested on these words in three weeks, so be sure to take good notes! You’ll need them for your group, game, and study guide.
Vocabulary Notes End Result:
The end result should look like this:
Grading: Your notes are your exit ticket, so be sure to set them up correctly.
