Not to be grandiose, bombastic or a megalomaniac, but my pseudonym is Vocab Gal, and I’m a little bit famous.

So in my blog, VocabGal.com, I blog about fun ways to help students learn vocabulary as well as tips for new teachers, quick interviews with YA authors about writing/vocabulary.
I am sponsored by Sadlier (who make great vocabulary books incidentally), but my strategies are totally free and are not tied to any specific set of words. There is actually a graphics team at Sadlier who design all the downloadable templates -including an amazing Candyland-like game called VocabLand and essentially all of my games and activities come with a free handout to download in color or in black and white.
Check back every Thursday for a new activity, author interview or piece of advice for teachers.
