This resource contains a Powerpoint and a running race worksheet with teacher answers.
You will first explain some common strategies for working out the meaning of new vocabulary with examples.
Students will then have a group running race in which they apply the strategies they have learnt to new words. They will have to come to you for each question with a correct answer before being allowed to access the next question. The first team to complete the quiz wins.
This is a tried and tested lesson which my students love. Engaging, fun and practical.
Suitable for KS3 or KS4 English for any exam board. Especially suitable for CIE First Language English 0500 in which students will have to define new words.
