Make Vocabulary Interactive!

Teachers can use exciting, interactive games to teach students vocabulary.  It will help students attach meaning to words and hold onto that meaning.  See the following video how a teacher utilizes a simple game that causes students to discuss and analyze words to make connections to remember word choice.  This game could be altered a number of ways and used for pre-teaching vocabulary or even a review.  It gets students actively involved and moving!  I think my school is lacking in creative, engaging vocabulary games/lessons partly due to time constraints and lack of vocabulary curriculum.
