Word Cline helps students to build, refine and use new vocabulary as they generate synonyms and discuss connotations and nuances of meaning. They generate words with similar meaning and arrange them to show a graduating intensity, according to a given criterion.
1. Select a relevant key word e.g. family. It is important for students to be able to generate at least four synonyms for the chosen key word.
2. Have students generate synonyms (or words that are closely related) for the key word, e.g. relatives, kin, people, folks, ancestors, relations.
3. Invite students to arrange the words in rising intensity against a criterion such as distant relationship to close relationship.
4. Organise students in small groups to discuss the words and reach a consensus about the order of the arrangement. Have them reflect on the factors that influenced the choice of placement.
5. As a whole class, discuss how the use of the different words from the Word Cline could impact on your speaking.
6. Provide time for students to review a selected piece of their own speaking and identify vocabulary that could be replaced with more specific words. (Note: This activity also works well with pupils analysing their writing)

Word mapping allows pupils to create a concept map or a visual organizer that will promote understanding of a new word/concept. It will help pupils to visualise the relationships between words and their possible meanings allowing them to think about the word in several ways. Teachers can use concept mapping for explicit vocabulary instruction or as a classroom assessment for learning tool because they provide teachers with a quick look at students' vocabulary knowledge.
Concept maps;
1. deepen understanding and comprehension.
2. help children organise new information.
3. are especially useful for teaching Tier 3 words.
4. help students to make meaningful connections between the new word and words previously learned.
5. are easy to construct and can be used within any content area.
There are a variety of concepts maps available for vocabulary instruction, the one linked here is Own the Word Graphic Organizer.
