When teaching vocabulary it's important to ensure the learner understands the words being taught. Successful methods in teaching vocabulary include providing the definition for the word and providing the learner with a visual such as a photo or the object, to assist in associating the word with an image. To test understanding, create vocabulary exercises using the list of words being taught with
. the definition for the learner to draw a line between the word and the definition. http://www.auburn.edu/~nunnath/engl6240/tvocabul.html
