Vocabulary Mapping
This strategy will aid students in expanding their vocabulary development using a simple mapping format.
- The students place the vocabulary word in the middle of a blank piece of paper.
- The students label each of the four corners of the paper with the following headings: definition, synonym, sentence, and picture.
- The students draw arrows radiating from the vocabulary word to each of the four headings.
- The students complete what is being asked for under each of the four headings in regards to the vocabulary word.
- The students share and discuss their vocabulary mappings with the class.
