DESIGNING VOCABULARY TASKS

a) Grammar. There is a tendency to devote too much time to grammar teaching, much of which should be transferred to vocabulary.
b) Checking homework. Often half the lesson is wasted on going through exercises students have done for homework. Try …

  • just giving the answers, or writing them up on the board; students self-check and then respond only if there is a problem;

  • giving them five minutes to check through the answers in pairs, asking you only if there is a problem;

  • taking in their homework to check at home (obviously you can’t do this every time, too time-consuming, but occasionally you can, and it saves time in class).

As a vehicle for renewing and sustaining communities, the idea of creativity brings a new layer of responsibility for teachers. Many methods or techniques have been designed to assist individuals in generating original ideas. In any case, awareness with techniques designed to improve creative thinking gives individuals a set of tools to use in their exploratory behavior. Students can use purposeful strategies to channel their thoughts in new directions. Although brainstorming which can be used at almost any level, other sophisticated uses of metaphor, are best for students with more highly developed abstract thinking abilities.
The most popular teaching design vocabulary tasks for beginners the teachers use at different levels are visualization and creative dramatics, use of analogies, divergent thinking strategies and commercial and competitive programmes.
