Vocabulary Checkers Activity

One afternoon, pull out the red markers and gear up for a game of checkers. You can, prepare a blank chessboard and ask your students to color in the red squares.
Then, set them up in pairs and ask them to write one vocabulary word in each square. As each pair plays, they'll have to provide the correct definition for each square. If they're successful, they claim ownership over that square.

Popsicle Parts of Speech Activity

By this time, students should have been introduced to basic parts of speech, especially nouns and verbs. Ready to test their knowledge? For this activity, all you'll need are popsicle sticks and jars of some sort — maybe three old mason jars or coffee mugs. Label one jar "nouns," the other "verbs" and the last "adjectives." On each popsicle stick, write out words like enemy, and exactly. You can then work as a class or in small groups to sort the sticks into the three jars.

Perusing Print Publications

Are the days of print newspapers and magazines behind us? Not entirely. See if you can scrounge up a hard copy of a periodical for each of your students. (Alternatively, you can find an article online and put it up on the overhead.) Then, ask students to look for either a picture or a snippet from the article that contains one of the above vocabulary words. When they've done so, ask them to write it down and use it in a sentence of their own before presenting their findings to the class.

Applying Vocabulary to Poetry Writing

Do some of your students have an affinity for poetry? If so, use some of the more eye-catching vocabulary words above to develop a selection of topics your students can write about. Say you choose the word emissary. Maybe they'll produce prose about a king's emissary who went to find his one true love. Open up the floor to a wide variety of poetry types. Encourage your students to share in their self-expression.

Endless Enthusiasm for Vocabulary

It helps if endless enthusiasm is your constant companion when it comes to vocabulary lessons. Rote memorization isn't the only solution. Activities that engage students' minds in a very "real-world" sense, along with a little kinesthetic learning can help them increase their vocabulary exponentially.

Did you enjoy that? The letter E comes with lots of great E words and is a really fun letter to learn along with your students.

The Sounds of E

But before we begin with all the excellent E words, let’s dive into the sounds that E makes. E is one of the simpler vowels because is has two main sounds: the short or long sound.

The long E sound says its name /ee/ as in the words he, we, be. The short vowel sound says /eh/ as in end, egg, and men.

The Sounds of E:

• /ee/ as in she, he, we
• /eh/ as in red, ten, end

Note: As with many letters in the English language, there are variations and exceptions (/er/ as in earth, /Ī/ as in eye, etc.). As well as, unique jobs that letter E performs, such as, preventing a word from ending in v or u, or being placed silently at the end of a word to make the vowel have a long sound. (Feel free to explore all these silent E rules).

E Words for Preschool

When you begin teaching preschoolers the letter E, start by using the short vowel sound /eh/. (This prevents letter sound confusion, as they are learning all the other letter sounds of the alphabet.)

Also, the short vowel sound /eh/ is the easiest (as far as E rules goes) and will be the sound they will first associate with E when they begin reading.

Preschoolers are new to the alphabet. With that being said, focus on fun letter recognition activities, prewriting skills, and simple E word choices.

*Check out the Preschool Daily Skill Builder for daily skill-building in six different areas including writing, letters, and reading.

Here are a few E words. These use the short E sound /eh/ and are common things that preschoolers could easily identify.

Words that begin with E for Preschool:

• Egg – I have an egg with toast every morning for breakfast.
• Elf – The elf sat on the shelf.
• Elephant – I saw an elephant at the zoo.
• Elk – The elk grazed through the forest.

E Words for Kindergarten

Once kindergarteners are familiar with the alphabet and have started reading, go ahead and introduce some new e words. Here are some e word suggestions for kindergarten: some for both the short e sound and for the long E sound.
