New Words With Bright Colors!
Learn a new language! Add to your vocabulary. Practice spelling words. Write and check your new words with a classmate in cool colors.
1. Catch on quickly to new words! Draw and write them in color with a classmate. Ask your teacher for your new vocabulary words. They could be a language you are learning, weekly spelling words, or new math or science vocab, for example.
2. Take turns translating, spelling, or writing definitions! Write a word (such as el gato) on a dry-erase board with Crayola® Dry-Erase Markers. Ask your partner to translate the word (cat), spell it, or define it. When you’ve checked your answer, erase the words with a facial tissue.
3. Take turns. Repeat the activity until both you and your partner have mastered your entire word list.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
- Visual clues help people remember! If one of you has difficulty with a translation or definition, draw a picture to give a hint.
- Use a similar partner strategy to learn cell structures, body parts, continents, capitals, or almost any other information.
- Assessment: Students will be successful if they self-monitor their progress during this activity and learn their entire word list.
