STEP 3 - MISS THE TARGET
ORTHOGRAPHIC (WRITTEN) ACCENT
NOTES FOR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
There are 21 thematic practice sets on this page.
For professional development, just scroll down this page and scan the themes and thumbnails. It only will take a minute or two, but you're sure to find some interesting vocabulary!
For your classes, think of it as a buffet: there is no need to do all the sets. Over the rest of the semester, you can assign a few here and there, and you can also let students pick something of interest.
NOTES FOR STUDENTS
This page provides many vocabulary-building practice sets... try to finish at least 10 of them, picking those of most interest to you (or those assigned by your teacher).
Make it a goal to do one or two sets a few times a week through the rest of the semester.
Now that you've mastered unwritten (prosodic) accents, you can master written (orthographic) accents just as easily while you build vocbaulary!
