It’s always a fun and engaging way to start class, and of course, they learned something new! The word that stumped them the most? Curator—but we got there! the five words: • #Stellar: Extremely good • #Alumni: Previous graduate • #Curator: Museum collector • #Imminent: About to happen • #Alma mater: School attended in the past This activity never disappoints and sets a great tone for #learning. #grammar #newvocabulary #VocabularyReview #BellRingerActivity #MiddleSchoolVocabulary #TeachingWithFun #LearnNewWords #ClassroomEngagement #GrammarAndVocabulary #StellarLesson #WordOfTheDay #MiddleSchoolTeacher #TeachingEnglish #VocabularyChallenge #BuildingLanguageSkills #FunWithWords #TeachersOfTikTok

Nonchalant is one of my favorite words to teach! In this lesson, we explore its meaning and how to use it, while also addressing common mispronunciations. ‘Nonchalant’ means appearing calm, casual, or indifferent—even when you’re actually feeling the opposite. My students are always surprised to realize they already have a sense of the word after we break it down together. By the end of the lesson, they’ll not only pronounce it correctly but use it with confidence! Nonchalant (adjective): Calm, composed, and appearing unconcerned, even in situations where others might expect a reaction. Someone who is nonchalant gives off an air of ease and indifference, often masking any underlying emotions or stress. Example: “Despite the chaos around her, she remained nonchalant, sipping her coffee as if nothing was wrong. #grammar #grammarlesson #Nonchalant #newword #GrammarAndVocabulary #EnglishLesson #WordOfTheDay #LearnEnglish #MiddleSchoolVocabulary #TeachingWithPurpose #VocabularyChallenge #PronunciationTips #ESLLesson #LanguageLearning #EducationMatters #WordsMatter #EngagingLessons #VocabularyInAction
