Very Important Word (VIW)
Purpose:
This activity will provide a deeper understanding of abstract or complex words.
Directions:
ƒ Select a vocabulary word.
ƒ Complete VIW form with the class.
ƒ Guide students to:
• define the VIW using their own words,
• write an antonym for the VIW,
• use the VIW in a sentence,
• draw an icon (symbol),
• and provide an explanation of the icon.
* Use an overhead or white board when modeling the process.

“I have, Who has?”
This vocabulary builder allows students to study multiple words during one activity. The
students enjoy this activity because it is more like a game than an educational tool. Special
focus is required from the students because they need to pay attention in order to participate.
All the students sit on their desks and are given a card. As they complete their turn, they return
to their seats. The teacher begins the lesson with the first card:
Teacher:
“Who has to use again?”
Student A: “I have reuse. Who has the total trash produced by a community?”
Student B: “I have waste stream. Who has to become broken down into
components?”
The card looks like this:
I have reuse.
Who has the total trash
produced by a community?
Use this activity after the students have heard each word and definition at least twice. This
activity can be played as often or as little as the teacher desires. It is easy to include in a lesson
and is a great activity when you have a little time to spare.
I have ______________________________________________________.
Who has ___________________________________________________?
Department of Curriculum and Instruction
“Making Connections”
This activity is designed to improve vocabulary acquisition and retention. It is good to use when the students
have many different vocabulary words and they are trying to differentiate among them. Since the activity
expects the students to describe what it is AND what it is not, the students get an extensive look into the word.
(target word)
pollute
(context of the word)
the environment
What it is:
What it is not:
dirtying the earth
cleaning up litter
toxic chemicals put in the ground
toxic chemicals in barrels
driving an SUV
driving a sedan
I’d probably find this word in these contexts:
(places, events, people, and situations)

discussions about the environment;
articles about factory chemicals;

Sort the vocabulary words. Have students create their own sorts by meaning, word features, and parts of
speech.
Categorize the words.
Create metaphors or analogies.
Define the words using a Circle Map.
Compare the words using a Venn diagram or Double Bubble Map.
Play Free Association.
Play Jeopardy, Charades, Pictionary, or $100,000 Pyramid.
“I Have, Who Has” (To begin the activity the teacher asks a question such as “What planet do we live
on? Student holding the vocabulary card with Earth says “I have Earth.” They ask the next question.
“Who has the planet no longer a planet?” The student with Pluto says “I have Pluto. Who has the planet
with the rings?”)
Use the “Very Important Word” activity included in this packet.
Review during transition times.
Each day give the students one or two words and have them write a sentence with each word.
Assign 5 words to each student. Students have 5-10 minutes to write using their words. Provide an
opportunity for students to share their work.
Use Vocabulary Study Guide sheets.
Classroom volunteers review with students individually or in small groups.
Create a crossword puzzle.
Create a “Cloze” activity.
Play “Guess the Covered Word.”
Create a vocabulary Power Point.
Have a student or volunteer read the definitions into a tape recorder. Include a pause between each
definition. Students can say and write the correct answer. Use this in a classroom listening center.
Use with CPS (Interactive Response System) if your school has it.
Cooperative groups create a “review” game board. If the student gets the word/answer right, he/she can
advance a certain number of spaces on the board (determined by a number cube or playing card).
Pairs can quiz each other.
Engage students in choral response activities using the cards.
Use during in-door recess or at your “Early Finishers” center.
Copy for your school’s before or after school program coordinator. Teachers can use the cards and
activities during this time.
Use to play the game “Memory.” Turn over 2 cards. Try to match the word to the definition.
Put content review cards in chronological order.
**Grouping suggestions include individual pairs, small group, and whole group.
