Collaboration Using Flashcards to Improve Vocabulary: modality Proposal

Abstract:

The implementation of collaboration using flashcards to improve vocabulary will take place in a private institution. It will last four weeks and will be part of a unit titled “Routines and Physical Appearance”. The plan is organized using the backwards design model. This means that the teacher must set a goal and from it the teacher plans the activities and assessment. It is expected that all the activities are aligned to the goal. Because this implementation was introduced in a regular unit, the description here will focus only on the innovation. The beginning activities will engage students to actively participate during the intervention. The teacher will share the benefits of collaborating and the different types of groups that there will be for the next four weeks. Students are attending regular classes. Thus, resources will be physical and digital. The application that will be used to show and practice with flashcards is Quizziz. The visuals will aid at activating students’ prior knowledge and introducing the tasks students will do in pairs or groups. Visuals will also reinforce three aspects of vocabulary: connotation, grammatical function, and register. Students will work in collaboration with their peers and it is expected that with the different practices and the frequency students will be exposed to the words, they will internalize the spelling, pronunciation, and function of the words. After introducing the flashcards, students will speak or write and use the words in context.
