Family Webquest!

LET´S KNOW OUR ROOTS

The Process

You have to make a research based on family’s vocabulary. You have a special job ahead. So, there are the steps that you have to follow:
-Make pairs

-Each pair has to go over the following links: http://www.members.iinet.net.au/~adelegc/vocab/family/family2.html and http://www.members.iinet.net.au/~adelegc/vocab/family/family7.html

-Check all the words related to family and each member has to practice by doing some exercises for 15 minutes

-According to what you have seen and understand through the previous web pages, you have to prepare some flashcards with family vocabulary.

-You have to take make all the flashcards based on the following list:

Mother, Father, Daughter, Son, Cousin, Aunt, Uncle, Niece, Nephew, Granddaughter, Husband, Wife, Sister, Brother, and Grandson

-Draw and cut some images that can illustrate each word.

-Also, include a sentence that shows the member’s chore at home.

Vocabulary: Tips

VOCABULARY FOR CHILDREN - TIPS

• When teachers present new words they can include them into sentences: so that students will get the meaning of the word according to the use that they can remember.
  


• Teachers can correct mistakes in order to avoid getting a wrong meaning and in the future.
  


• Make groups of based on words’ categories. In life, people tend to organize things in this way and they will remember the words by relating them to their similar.

Vocabulary.. Is it important?

Is vocabulary an important aspect in people’s life? Well, for us it is. When someone is learning a foreign language vocabulary is the base of it. Through separate words, we can create different sentences as we learn other structures. Also, vocabulary is the most important tool that is used in any place. In this case, our choice is because we really want to improve students’ vocabulary.

Lesson Plan based on a Video

PREVIEWING

Introduce the topic through questions. Students are going to be familiar with the variety of families.

Activity

Questions (directed to specific a student)

-What is a family?
-How many members does your family have?
-Are all the families the same?
-Do you like movies?

We are going to watch a video that presents particular families; they are composed by different members.

Time: 5 minutes

After that, you can add more activites and an assignmet.

Vocabulary Webquest

Remember that at the tiem that we use a webquest, we should take into account a specific evaluation:

http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/260199

First of all, this is a web page in which can be found many ways that can teach vocabulary for kids. At the same time, they will play through they learn. We can take some words that are the most common ones at our target age (between 7 to 10 years).
For me, this webquest is very well-done because it has all the required parts that students need to follow to complete their project. It has all the parts that were presented in www.webquest.org and they are very clear at the time that is explaining exactly what students should do.
