This is an ideal way to foster vocabulary development. Vocabulary included in this 8th grade course includes terms such as juxtapose, velocity, technical, surmise, validate, abhor and many others. 8th grade is a target level for this course, but depending on a child's vocabulary development it may be useful for other or younger children.

This 10-session vocabulary course offers a way for 5th graders to broaden their vocabulary learning, or gaining a deeper understanding of, the meaning and usage of words such as: dedicate, withdraw, enact, pasture, garment and many others. As a 5th grade course the primary age target is 10-11 year olds. However, younger and older children may benefit from the course depending on their level of vocabulary development since there is some variance in each child's language development compared to what might be considered 'average' for a given grade level.
