Txxiii Vocabulary in Context • Preview vocabulary Remind students of the vocabulary strategies they have learned, such as Use Visuals on page 7, Word Web on page 47, and Personalize Vocabulary on page 89. Have students preview new vocabulary by pointing out the terms and matching images. Say: Which of these words do you know? Direct volunteers to share responses. • Use illustrations to clarify word meanings Have volunteers read the example sentences and discuss the images to aid comprehension. Ask: How can the sentences and pictures help you understand new words? Use the vocabulary routine to teach any unfamiliar words. • Play a vocabulary game Create sets of vocabulary cards for each word by writing the word on one side and drawing a rough sketch on the other. Model choosing two cards and using them in a sentence. Say: I chose reporter and town hall. The reporter spoke with people in the town hall. Act out the scenario to provide comprehensible input. Then divide students into pairs and give each pair a set of cards. Direct pairs to work together to generate new sentences with the words and act out scenarios if sentences lend themselves to it.
