Teacher Resource: Vocabulary Can be Fun Website



An amazing teacher resource that I discovered was this wonderful website titled, "Vocabulary can be fun!"  This vocabulary website is a fun educational website dedicated to helping learners build reading, phonics, or English language skills. The website also has tons of online vocabulary words games such as crossword puzzles and hangman that allow students to practice vocab words. The vocabulary games are popular for use on smart boards to build vocabulary skills in classrooms.

The first thing that popped out to me about this educational website was that it was blue and yellow.

Being bright and interactive it really appeals to younger children and anyone who views this website is instantly hooked. I believe it is best suited for kindergarten through eighth grade.

Did I love it or hate it? I LOVED IT

I really loved this site because many of the word games are organized with dozens of categories of vocabulary lists that give learners plenty of opportunities to practice vocabulary. Young learners will love playing games and games will help learners develop their oral language skills as well. Games allow learners to practice what is taught in a fun and nonthreatening way. By making connections between words, ideas, and pictures, learners can build strong vocabulary skills! The enjoyment from playing games can help both native and foreign speakers of English build their English language vocabulary skills. There are many games for all levels of learning English which is a plus.
