Here's an activity that is guaranteed to help your students develop depth of knowledge about their vocabulary words. Go to gotbrainy.com where your students can create posters that define words in a number of ways. Let them choose and upload a picture that represents the word they've chosen (or that you've assigned) and write something that succinctly explains/defines it. Allow students to present their words in this multi-media format. The words are sure to stick with the creators as well as the class members to whom they're presenting them. By the way, there are lots of good examples on the site for you to see. It's easy to get started! Let me know how it works for you!
