I've seen so many "vocabulary detective" activities out there that I was inspired to make one!
The goal of this activity is to encourage students to expand their lexicons by intentionally looking and listening for new vocabulary words in their every day life - in movies or TV shows, commericals or print advertisements, etc. When they "detect" one of the words on their list, they must document the "evidence" in the slide deck - where and when they saw/heard the word and in what context - as well as create an original sentence using the term with an image that symbolizes the meaning of the word.
