Wordly Wise lesson plans offer proven methods for improving english vocabulary.
The Wordly Wise Grade 4 Book 1 Kit includes all materials needed for the teacher and one student. Wordly Wise vocabulary building activities will improve and increase vocabulary while engaging the children in fun exercises. The Wordly Wise, Book 1 kit is made up of 30 lessons with approximately 12 words in each lesson. Words taught in Book 1 include hoard, obstinate, gleam, rural, yearn, truce, bloom, idle, scatter, pasture, dour, burrow, feeble, and keen. Comprehension of the vocabulary words is facilitated and reinforced through the four different exercises repeated in each lesson and the chapter reviews.
Each lesson in books 1-9 introduces about 12-18 new words; the number of new words increases as the books become more challenging. The lessons contain several exercises that reinforce learning by teaching students to use words precisely in a variety of situations. Exercises A, B, and C use the new words in context, teach multiple meanings of words, and give practice using the words in sentences. Correct completion of Exercise D in Books 1-3 and Exercise E in 4-6 gives part of a quotation, poem, or riddle. Beginning with Book 4, an additional exercise addresses roots, prefixes, and suffixes.
Each lesson ends with the popular Wordly Wise section that gives information on correct usage and interesting word histories, and points out common verbal pitfalls. The kit includes the following items:
- Wordly Wise Student Book 1
- Wordly Wise Answer Key Book 1
- Wordly Wise Test Book 1
