MICCA
Another interesting website I recently started using is http://quizlet.com/. This is a tool for learning vocabulary. Just enter words and their definitions and Quizlet does the rest. In this specialized learning mode, students learn vocabulary through flashcards, games, and randomly generated tests. There are also collaboration tools for classmates to help each other study. I am using this site to develop science and social studies vocabulary for my ESOL students. They can become familiar and practice the vocabulary prior to the classroom lesson.

I remember those teachers from Howard County showing us this. It looked like a great site. Is it easy for you students to use? How are they liking it? Are you seeing any results?
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me about that one.
