(Deborah Pienezza, Brockbank)
Put several vocabulary terms on 3x5 cards with brief definitions. The last
few minutes of class ask all students to stand. Pick a card and read the word. Call on someone who raises their hand. If they get it right, they sit down. There are some variations. Sometimes I ask that person for their birth month. If they were born in June, then everyone born in June sits. Sometimes the person getting the correct answer gets to pick someone and they both sit down. Students love this game, and it is very effective in developing basic vocabulary.
