Idee zum Unterrichtseinsatz
The 100 most common words in the English language quiz can be made already with beginners. All you need is a data projector and a PC with internet access. You can do it with the whole class and everybody can contribute.
This is a good opportunity to teach word classes (conjunctions, prepositions, verbs, articles, etc.)
This exercise can be repeated after a while as it is a wonderful competition against the clock.
“The word-mix exercises (with TOASTER and THROUGH) foster a creative approach to word formation.“
