In this activity students will define vocabulary words and generate examples of the vocabulary word. This activity requires students to read and produce written text. Modifications would allow for students to use oral text instead.
During this activity, students brainstorm what they know about a given topic. After engaging with text, they revisit their brainstorm and identify words, ideas, etc. that were used in the text.
This resource requires the following modification to explicitly target listening comprehension: shift the burden of decoding/encoding onto the educator (i.e., the educator should read/write instead of the student(s)).
