Teaching Vocabulary #1 - Cloze

It is simply another word for "filling in the blanks".   This makes a good introduction to vocabulary and students will have to open the book and find the word, read and write the main points.

How to make a cloze:
If the objective is to introduce the topic of relations, then you may write the cloze as follows:

Relations (pg 201) - is a set of o________ p______, tables, mappings and g_______.

**** you can also make a flashcard, in addition to a cloze.  See my teaching vocabulary #2
