Index of Vocabulary

Vocabulary will be more than just memorizing words -- it will be about learning language patterns, so it will include memory work of other kinds as well. I'll probably fit handwriting practice in here.

Vocabulary Review

Here is a page that has "vocabulary in context" games. That is where you try to figure out what the words mean by how they are used in a sentence. That is a good way to approach vocabulary, but in some of these sentences, more than one of the words COULD fit. Still, try this when vocabulary is assigned (5 + games) and see how you do. The words are chosen from a pool of 250 common SAT words.


(Something that can be fun to do is to imagine what story the sentence could have been taken from. Clare used to do her vocabulary study that way).
