Vocabulary Unplugged is a great way to start.  This is a book by Alana

 Hello everyone--

 I am hoping someone out there can help me. My colleagues and I wish to 
start a vocab program. We have chosen words from the literature we use and I 
have self-created graphic organizers, quizzes, power points and puzzles that 
are applicable to any words. What we're looking for are activities of the 
same nature---that is, is there a web program similar to something like 
puzzlemaker.com where we can plug in the words and come up with a list of 
activities that address synonyms, antonyms, part of speech, proper usage in 
a sentence, context clues, etc... or am I dreaming?? If not, where should we 
begin/ search?

 Thanks in advance for any insight you may have.

 best, karen---------------------------------------------------
