Vocabulary grows fastest when new words arrive attached to something to do, which is the principle this activity book is built on.
Prompts and exercises ask children to use words rather than only read them, through matching, gap filling, categorising and picture-linked tasks that encourage retention. Working this way spreads new vocabulary across several contexts, and a word met three different ways tends to stay. The activities are short enough to finish in one sitting, so idle hours can be filled without committing to a long session, and completed pages give a visible record of how far a child has come.
What readers get:
• Word-building exercises that require active use, not passive reading
• Matching, gap-filling and categorising tasks across varied formats
• Short activities that can each be completed in a single sitting
• A running record of progress as pages are filled in
