1. Strategy Outline: QHT Chart
This strategy can be used to review vocabulary students have learned previously, either in
class or previous grade levels.
Why: Reviewing content knowledge vocabulary can be very time consuming, this is a
quick way for students to help each other relearn the words they should know.
What: the following materials are needed:
QHT Chart for each student
Vocabulary words on chart paper or the board
List of vocabulary words for students to take notes on (optional)
How:
1. Present each student with a QHT Chart.
2. Read all the words displayed for the students.
3. Instruct students to place each word in one of the columns.
Q – Words I have questions about
H – Words I have heard of
T – Words I can teach about
4. After the students have place all the words on the chart, go through the list
displayed and ask if anyone had a question about each word in order.
5. If someone has a question about a word, ask if anyone can teach their classmate
about that word.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you have gone through the list of words.
Variation:
You can also go through the list and ask for students who have listed the word in the
Teach column to teach the class about the word. This would allow those students too
afraid to admit they don’t know the word the opportunity to still learn the word without a
chance of embarrassment.
