Tp teaching vocabulary lesson plan
1. The document outlines a lesson plan for teaching vocabulary. It includes warming up activities, presenting different vocabulary techniques like using realia, word building, matching, and dictionaries.
2. Students would practice concept checking by writing questions for vocabulary words. They would also suggest which techniques to use for different words like "vote" and "medicine".
3. The document provides examples of applying the techniques, such as using real kitchen tools to teach cooking vocabulary or acting out verbs. It also lists guidelines for effective vocabulary presentations.
The natural approach
The natural approach to teaching second language students involves four stages: comprehension, early production, speech emerges, and intermediate fluency. During the initial comprehension stage, teachers should use visual aids, speak slowly, and not require English practice. The early production stage involves yes/no answers and one-word responses. The speech emerges stage includes short phrases and dialog. Finally, the intermediate fluency stage focuses on longer phrases, sentences, and narratives. Throughout the process, the natural approach emphasizes meaning over grammar and uses the native language, visuals, and a comfortable classroom environment to lower anxiety and facilitate acquisition.

Miss Roswurn's Spelling Plan
This document summarizes Miss Roswurm's new approach to individualized spelling instruction for her class. Each student will have their own personalized spelling list of 10 words per week, with 5 words chosen by the student and 5 additional words chosen by the teacher based on their needs. The goal is for students to learn and apply words they will use in their own writing, rather than just memorizing lists. Throughout the week, students will complete various activities to learn the spelling words, and parents can help by suggesting words and reviewing lists at home. Students will be tested on their lists each Friday.
What are lexical sets
A lexical set is a group of words that share the same meaning or function. In linguistics, lexical sets are useful for categorizing words by topic or syntax. John Wells devised lexical sets as a way to identify vowel sounds using groups of words rather than phonetic symbols. Examples include the KIT lexical set containing words like "ship" and "sick" and the DRESS lexical set containing words like "step" and "mess". It is suggested that teaching vocabulary through lexical sets helps students learn and understand word relationships more easily by organizing knowledge into categories.
