5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have!!
I bought this book after being frustrated with the lack of vocabulary my children have in the classroom. After speaking with my child's teacher about the lack of weekly vocabluary, and that the children were OBVIOUSLY not going to get this in the public school....I decided to buy this book to use as an at-home tool for my 6th grader (I also bought the 3rd grade version for my younger child).Each lesson has 10 vocab words with definitions, and then 5-6 activities to complete using these words. I first review the definitions with my child and give an example of how it might be used in a sentence. I then let her complete the activities and check them before she goes on to the next one. Depending on the activities, it may take about 15-20 minutes to complete the lesson. She seems more confident with word meaning and this should help with reading comprehension as well. I have been really happy with the book so far and only wish I had started these books earlier. I highly recommend this series.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, Visually Pleasing & Easy to Use
This book has a good variety of vocabulary words and is thoughtfully grouped by subject (synonyms, homographs, eponyms, etc).The font size, drawings, and number of tasks per page all make the book user friendly and manageable - not too hard and not too easy. The layout makes it simple to accommodate a child's ability, interest and/or attention on any given day - do a single page, a lesson (3 pages) or more.And for the most part it avoids the tropes and stereotypes that editors think are fine in sentences and drawings in these kinds of workbooks. Although I would like to see a different drawing in future editions other than two teenage girls glaring at each other to illustrate the word "hostile." Perhaps a cat with it's fur on end hissing at...anything?The "writing to learn" section was the kind of thing I would want to skip as a student because of how different it was from the previous tasks, but you know what's fun now? Doing this task at the same time as your kid and then reading aloud your results to each other. You can get creative and make the answers humorous and ridiculous, yet still accurate!The team (Individual, I guess? Thank you to Linda Ward Beech) who put this together did a wonderful job and I wish Scholastic would keep the same format for grades beyond 6th. Is she retired? Can you ask her if she would do it Scholastic? C'mon, make it worth her time! Add a few pages per lesson, increase the vocabulary difficulty per grade of course, but otherwise keep everything else the same. Please!
5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT WORKBOOK!
As a mother of six who has been homeschooling for 17 years, I highly recommend this workbook. My 12-year-old daughter loves it, because it is interesting and informative. I like it because it is challenging, but doable. Each lesson is three pages long, and my daughter does one a day. Answers are in the back, so it's super easy to correct. I would highly recommend this workbook. My daughter already had an excellent vocabulary, but this is a great addition to her curriculum and has taught us BOTH many new words.
4.0 out of 5 stars Homeschooling
I used this book for my 12 year old, who I homeschool. This is our third year using these scholastic vocabulary workbooks. The lessons are short and rather easy. Its good for a short and straight to the point word study.
5.0 out of 5 stars A great help
My granddaughter is Japanese and living in Japan. This is a great help for her in her English class.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!
I purchased this after moving to a very small school and became the Social Studies and Language Arts teacher for grades 6-12 (there were 5 teachers for grades K-12 so it was a very small school). I went to college for Social Studies, so was in very unfamiliar territory for vocabulary in language arts. This became my Holy Grail for middle school vocabulary (grades 6-8 all in one class together) for a year. Since all of middle school were in one class, I couldn't use it the next year as two of the grades would have already completed everything, otherwise I would have used it over and over. It had great activities to help the kids learn the meanings of the words and learn how to use the words.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great workbook!
I homeschool and I used the grade 5 workbook (240 Vocab Words) last year and decided to go ahead and purchase this one for grade 6 year because the one last year worked great for us. I love the workbook. It's a quick learn on new words, grammar, etc. Fun fun!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for word learning!
Great selection of words, and with each set of words, your learner will be exposed to synonyms and antonyms as well, so it's almost like two sets of words for each section. There are several different types of activities that give lots of opportunity for practice without getting repetitive. Very happy with this purchase - will buy the next year's edition when the time comes.
This book is great!
