65. Teaching vocabulary through guessing


Joe has just told us,
"There is a particular game that helps much to interiorize new words. Have a go.
You say things about a word you the class are learning lately. They have to guess what the word is.
You say about its use, color, shape, size, what the thing is made out of, examples, opposites, mimicry... It's so amusing.
Then, one of your kids, or your adult learners will act as though she was the teacher in that way presenting a word."
