I am going to use this. It seems like a good stradagy for studying. It is also similar to wordchamp which we use in spanish class. That seems to work well for me so maybe this will too.

i like it! i like how the games make you think and you have to correct youself when your wrong. i dont like it when youre just shooting out answers and its tellin youre wrong, then moving on.

I will create an account soon. I hope it’s like Word Champ just like Caroline said up there because it helps me a lot and it’s all I use to study language. It’s a great way to learn words because it makes you put in the write one. Knowing words are very important and they’re hard to study so, this should work well.

I am going to make an account on quizlet and start studying on this. I have heard about it before and i really think it will be a great way to study even if you "forgot" your notes!

Quizlet sounds like a great idea. It's a really good tool to study and will help us understand our notes better so we can do better on our quizes.

I think that Quizlet has helped me. I went on and I now under stand what we need to know. It made me memorize the words. I agree with caroline. It is kinda like word champ.

Lidia said...

Although I agree that Quizlet is a good idea and seems useful, I prefer making my own flash cards. I find that rewriting the words (or parts of words in this case) helps me remember them. I can also take them out if there is free time in other classes throughout the day.

HORVATH
its mandi and jess. we were wondering if you could make a blog for all the freshmen from last year.
(this was all mandi's idea..i dont understand it)
by the way, please dont rip our smilieys off your cabinet. i like them there. ok, well this was pointless.bye!

Quizlet seems like a great way to study vocab. I agree with caroline as well, about how it is like word champ for spanish. Word champ really helps me study and i think quizlet will do the same. However i do also agree with lidia, because i do like to make my own flashcards. I can carry them around anywhere and glance at them between classes. I can also write the words again which helps drill it into my head more. Both ways are good ways to study.

I haven't set up Quizlet yet, but from what I saw in class, I think it will work for me. Although I also like making my own flashcards like Lidia and Bella, I think that this way is much faster. Instead of taking time to write down everything, (which I also agree helps you to learn), you can just hop on the computer, log on, and study! I feel like this is going to be a productive way of learning the vocabulary words.

I haven't made a Quizlet account yet, but i plan on making one because from the comments I have read it seems very helpful to study the vocab words.

I just made an account and it's great. It gets me to actively study for a long period of time. The games are quite addicting trying to beat other people's scores. It also lets you have something to fall back on if you bomb a test.

Jackie V said...

I`m gonna make a Quizlet account soon. I`m thinking of using it to help me study for other classes besides just language arts, and it`ll be good to have something to lift me back up if I completely fail on a quiz.

i will make an account soon. ive never heard of such a great idea

I think quizlet is great. If you ever forget your study materials you can go on quzlet and study.

Julia S said...

I will definitely make an account on quizlet because I think it is a great way to learn words and since there are games on there it can be fun. Also, it is probably easier than reading a piece of paper over and over again.

I have created an account on quizlet and the strategies seem to be working for me. I have memorized all the vocab so far and in my opinion, quizlet works way better than my other study habits.

Do we have to use quizlet? Im sure it is a good way to study, but personally it is too out of the way for me to really get into it. It is much easier for me to physically write things down, or go over material in a group/with another person to help me better remember what I need to know.

AnnaD said...

like other people said, it seems like it will help study vocab and actually learn it not just memorize what each word means.

KThompson said...

I haven't actually tried this out yet because I never have the time. But soon I hope I get the chance to try this out. I'm hearing from a lot of people that this is great for studying so I will get to this soon. Hopefully, using this will bring up my grade average.

Matt S said...

Ill be makeing an accunt soon. This sounds like a great way to learn the vocab we are assigned to learn. Im sure this will help me just as well as wordchamp helps me.

Georginax82 said...

I think quizlet is a good way to study and an eaiser way to make flash cards and i think it will make my grade go up and i tihnk it will help me study

Nick Z said...

I’m really excited to be using quizlet this year because it seems something like word champ in Spanish class which is a really good study habit and it will be great to use in language arts too.

quizlet is not very helpful from my point of veiw.

Anonymous said...

i have a question. can you use quizlet for other subjects?

zSchulz said...

Quizlet seems like a good idea and i am going to make an account. It seems helpful and i hope it will be like wordchamp, in spanish. Wordhamp helped me learn my vocabulary and i hope this will do the same thing.

Quizlet really helped me learn the prefixes, suffixes, and roots, the games and the website were neat. I thought the games especially were helpful and it was a lot more fun learning everything on quizlet than studying them from flashcards.

As most people have said Quizlet is a very good way to study.For me Using quizlet really helps me learn new things and really remember them.Quizlet allows you to play games, take tests, and use flashcards, which are really really helpful ways to learen and study new things.

ZoZo V. said...

I think quizlet is a great way to study my vocab. Along with being verrryyyyy helpful, the games can also be fun! Thanks for recommending this Mr. Horvath! :)

srichard said...

ok, I am sold, from reading all the blogs, I think I will jump on the bandwagon and set up Quizlet account. I do like going on the computer and I need to bring my grade up so what do I have to lose?

Sousa said...

Yeah, I think quizlet is a great way to study with vocab. I use websites like this so I think this one would be great too. Although I am good at spelling and words and all that, I think this still would be great practice.

nygiants1 said...

Quizlet is a good way to study vocabulary it also makes students more independent unlike just giving us definations on a piece of paper your making us go online and find the words ourselves which is a great idea.

AbbyS said...

I havent signed up yet for quizlet, but i will soon. I think quizlet is a wonderful way for us to study vocabulary instead of just studying from paper.

hss said...

I have to still sign up for quiz let. I think quiz let is easier to study because you play games and barnstorming activities that help you think more about the word or the thing you’re studying. The only thing I don’t like is that there are too many words at one time. It should be broken down so we remember them better.

Leann M said...

Quizlet is a very good way to study your vocabulary. On quizlet you can test yourself after you review it and I think it's a very good way to study the words.

Lian.D said...

Before the test I thought Quizlet would be fairly useful, however it got me prepared for multiple choice and I was not ready for an exact-word-definition-type of quiz. This may sound weird but I need to study in the same sort of format as the test, so the multiple choice quizzes on Quizlet kind of threw me off.

Jackie V. said...

I think this will be useful, because I know I got a 0 on the vocab quiz we just had, and I`m gonna try to make it so I get 100 on the rest. I think this is a really good idea. (:

Billy L. said...

I didn't use quizlet before we had the vocab quiz and i wasn't able to answer half of the quiz. I'm going to try quizlet to help me study now so I dont fail the next quiz.

Bailey said...

Without quizlet, I would have failed the first test. This is a great way to study because you are given the information, but you can customize how it is presented or asked to you.

mromes said...

I like this. I think it is a great way to study and learn the words. I am creating an account soon.

This is a good way for us to study because it's leaving us with the responsibility to remember to go on this and it's much easier to study from.

I really like quizlet. It's great for studying and if we fail the quiz or test that we have on the vocab, you can go back and check to see if we studied. If we did you give us full credit. I think this is great because it really gives students a second chance.
