Publisher's Synopsis
Research shows that explicit vocabulary instruction and a variety of repeated opportunities to use words leads to a deeper understanding of their meanings--and plays a significant role in student achievement. The engaging games, activities, and manipulatives in this resource provide a hands-on way for students to explore how words are formed, examine word origins, meanings, and uses, and learn strategies for recalling and strengthening vocabulary. Topics include prefixes, suffixes, and root words, multiple meaning words, analogies, content area words, and much more. For use with Grades 2-3.
