The Vocab Bundle - Finding Meaning Of Unfamiliar Words Using Context Clues
By Blooming Through High School
Word Meaning with Nonsense Words
Why teach word meaning through nonsense words (context clues only)?
All of these are things we want every student to do! This is something that is already adapted for high and low learners.
Starting with three nonsense words gets students going so they can work in groups or independently to decode the meaning of 7 REAL words (selected from the SAT vocabulary list).
This is a perfect activity for group problem solving and critical thinking!
Finding the meaning of words: in context, with a definition and from the Latin or Greek base. Four teaching pages are included for self-guided learning along with 7 student pages for practice with various shortened reading passages.
INCLUDED:
BUNDLE & SAVE: ELA Test Prep, Study Guide & Activities Bundle
Word Meaning with Greek & Latin
✔️Need to teach Greek & Latin along with Context Clues?
✔️Looking for way to get your students thinking critically & making connections?
✔️Need to integrate vocabulary in a meaningful way?
This activity includes worksheets, task cards and Google Quizzes for vocab practice
Students will use key words from the definitions in the first activity to determine the meaning of the Greek or Latin prefix. By recognizing the prefixes in words they recognize (and some they won't) students will begin making connections to other words they hear and read. This is a natural way to build in vocabulary to daily instruction that includes context clues and the Greek and Latin.
Included:
Vocabulary Starter
NEED TO TEACH VOCABULARY IN YOUR MIDDLE OR HIGH SCHOOL CLASSROOM AND YOU'RE NOT SURE WHERE TO START?
You came to the right place! I have been teaching for 5+ years, I have my Master's in Education with a focus on Literacy and I didn't know where to start.
So, I went back to everything I learned in my graduate program and re-read everything I could find.
I wrote & designed a student-engaging template to help students in my classroom to deeply internalize a word. I gathered key word lists when I didn't have a word from our daily reading, and thought about how to teach vocabulary so my love of etymology and words could be shared with my 10th graders. I've included all that and a guide to help other teachers get started with implementing and teaching vocabulary in THEIR classrooms.
Is this book for me?
Then this book is for you!
Adaptable to every classroom in every situation, this is more than a fill-in-the-blank activity. Your students will have a guide to build a vocabulary for a lifetime of learning.
WHY TEACH VOCABULARY EXPLICITLY?
Generating curiosity and delight in playing with words supports long-term memory, enhances the connection between orthography and meaning, and develops a disposition which stimulates word consciousness. It also builds vocabulary! All of these are a part of a vocabulary rich classroom environment.

1st Grade Memory Game HMH Spelling Words of the Week
By Ms Garcia Store
Engaging Memory Game to Enhance First-Grade Students' Learning of HMH Spelling Words!
Get ready for an exciting learning adventure with our fun Memory Game designed to help first-grade students master HMH Spelling Words. The set includes a total of 36 unique decks, one for each week. Students will practice 6 Decodable Words per week during the first 5 modules (15 weeks) and 10 words per week in the last 7 modules (21 weeks). That's a grand total of 285 words to conquer!
How to Play:
The game begins with all the cards face down, and players take turns flipping over two cards. If the two cards reveal the same word, they must write it on their recording sheet and keep the cards. If the words don't match, they turn the cards face down again. The winner is the player with the most cards when all cards have been taken. If some students find the game challenging, they can opt to play with the cards face-up for added support.
Try the First 3 Weeks Here:
Memory Game HMH Spelling Words of the Week - Module 1
Game Ideas:
- Play Memory Game individually or in pairs to cater to different learning preferences and needs. Alternatively, you can play both ways for additional challenges in word recall and writing skills.
- Combine different weeks from the same module to reinforce learning at the end of a unit, ensuring long-term retention of the spelling words.
- The versatile cards can be utilized for a myriad of games! For instance, you can print cards from multiple weeks or modules and distribute them, face-up, to each table or group of students. Challenge them to find the words you announce before the other groups do. The first group to find the word keeps the card and records it. The group with the most cards at the end wins!
- Encourage active learning by having students pick a card from a deck, write the word, and then select another card. This repetition reinforces their word recognition and writing skills.
- Foster collaborative learning by pairing students. One student can pick a card and dictate the word to their partner, who will write it down. Learning together through rote practice!
- For an additional challenge, have one student in a pair pronounce the sounds of each letter in the word while their partner writes it down.
If you have more innovative ideas, we'd love to hear them! Feel free to share your creative game variations in your review.
Printing Instructions:
To print the cards, first print the front of the cards. After that, reload the printed sheets into the printer and print the back design. For sturdiness, thicker paper is recommended, and you can even laminate them for extra durability.
Each module consists of 2 to 4 pages. Pages 1 to 93 are the front of the cards, while pages 94 and 95 are the back. You can try both designs to see which one aligns better with your printer. Additionally, page 96 provides 4 recording sheets to write down the pairs of words you create during the game.
Prepare for an exciting learning experience and watch your students thrive as they conquer HMH Spelling Words through this captivating Memory Game. Happy learning!
