I have a little notebook. I always have it with me. I try to fill one page a day. Sometimes I put words in groups, like fruit- all kinds of fruit. You know? Or colors, or clothes, or things and the shops where you buy them. I have some grammar pages, where I write regular verbs or irregular verbs, or a page of prepositions.
