Vocabulary In Context Website


Ever struggle with creating sentences that show a vocabulary word in context? This resource does it for you! Or, this could be a resource you share with your students to help them help themselves when they come across an unfamiliar word.

Words in a Sentence has over 2500 words (2611 as of Monday and 2636 at the moment, to be exact...) with sentences. Each word on the website is defined and then used in ten sentences to show the proper use in context. Many words also have synonyms and antonyms. From the looks of one page, it appears that they are working towards including an image for each word, too.

You (or your students) can also sign up for their word of the day.

Go learn a new word!

Larry Ferlazzo's List of Games for ESL/EFL/ELL Classrooms



My brother-in-law would be so proud of me for the statement which I am about to make. Jimmy Fallon can be a fun resource for education! He made Larry Ferlazzo's "List of Games for ESL/EFL/ELL Classrooms" not once, not twice, but FOUR times with word games he has played on his show. View Ferlazzo's list here.

PS - Many of them could be tweaked to fit in the traditional classroom as well.
