Helpful in teaching Vocabulary

This has been very useful in my 5th grade Language Arts class. The students enjoy completing the word of the day and have been trying to use the new words in class. In the classroom I have a student read the word and part of speech, then another read the sentence, and another read the definition and so on. We do 4 words (one section a week) and on Friday they share their written responses to the words with a partner. The students do this the last 10 minutes of class when other students are leaving for interventions. I would recommend this book to any teacher that wants to incorporate vocabulary in a quick and easy way.

Loved it!

We used this book with our third graders this year. You'd be surprised how many of these words are in their reading books. Our kids not only mastered these words BUT also started telling us when they saw one or heard someone use one. I highly recommend it to grades 3-5!

What an incredible find!!

This is a great vocabulary book! It does not have too many words all at once. There are 4 words in each section, and a short activity to do with them. I am homeschooling my 10 year old and this is a great supplement to her English assignments!!Highly recommend!
