How to remember words

Can you remember new words quickly? A vocabulary tree can help you.

  • Put the words into different groups, e.g. jobs, looks and feelings. Then write the group names on the branches.
  • Write down the words on the leaves of each branch.
  • Draw pictures of the words to help you remember their meanings if necessary.

Look at the vocabulary tree below. Complete it by writing the words on the correct leaves.
