As teachers, we must continually remind students that their goal is to not only recognize a particular word, but to produce it on their own. In order to gain the confidence to use a word, students must have knowledge of how to use it within the constraints of grammar, appropriateness, and meaning.This comes through repeated exposure to the word and careful attention. It is a slow and long process; as teachers, we must be as knowledgeable and encouraging as we can be.
