Meaning-Focused Activities for Mixed-Literacy ESOL

This video shares one of my favorite activities for any class, but especially for mixed-literacy ESOL classes. You'll see that because it focuses on the meaning of the words and the spoken form, it allows low-literacy and literate learners to be on a more even playing field. It's a great way to help low-literacy learners memorize new vocabulary in a fun way so that they can later move on to doing print literacy work with this, now familiar, vocabulary.
