Daily Teaching Journal #7

Today's focus is learning vocabulary. I taught XII graders this morning in the language lab. As they came in, I bombarded students 15 vocabularies describing personalities; conceited, tactful, etc. FYI, I needed to look up the dictionary for some words. A set of comprehension questions were given and then I provided them with a listening exercise in which the vocabularies were used. Questions that I keep in mind; Will they use the words? Or a simpler question, Would they remember the vocabularies by the time the class ended?
