Vocabulary Exercises and Worksheets

• Vocabulary can be taught in many different ways.
• And if you can add more variety to the teaching of vocabulary, you will have more enjoyable classes.
• Personally, I prefer using pictures and creating picture-vocabulary matching exercises and other kinds of exercises that might add  a critical thinking, contextual or cultural dimension.
• I have tried to give a sample of some useful vocabulary exercises and worksheets below.
