This is a great activity to promote vocabulary awareness into the classroom. Vocabulary is often what impedes a child's ability to understand what he/she is reading, and encouraging vocabulary awareness is integral in ensuring success as an independent reader and critical thinker. This activity is also great in other discplines as, we all know, the vocabulary level in most textbooks is written at a level much higher than an average student's reading level.

I've been a teacher's assistant for about two years prior to teaching. I have 10 years experience in teaching, but have learned a lot and created a lot of great things for other teachers to use to make teaching and learning easier and fun!
