This project is designed to encourage pupils to review some of


the new vocabulary they have learned during the year, while at
the same time having fun and practising creativity. The project
is intended to occupy two lessons. Pupils may need to do
some of the work at home.
Make sure that pupils have all the equipment they need. Then
guide them through the 10 steps in turn before they start the
procedure.
In Step 2, guide pupils to choose vocabulary from different
units in their textbook.
After pupils write down the list of 26 words, they put them in
alphabetical order.
In Step 4, demonstrate how pupils should fold the five sheets
of paper in the middle.
Alternatively, if pupils do not have the equipment or the time
to make their own book, they can omit Steps 4 and 5 and use
a ready-made notebook or exercise book instead.
At Step 6, pupils can, if they wish, make a more durable cover
for their book, either by using card or by gluing two or three
sheets of paper together.
Of course, pupils picture dictionaries can consist of more
than four sheets and therefore have space for more words and
pictures, if they wish.
Ask pupils to start numbering their book on page 3. So, the
book is numbered up to page 15, leaving the last page blank.
