Wordly Wise 3000 Student Book Grade 2 (3rd Edition; Homeschool Edition)
A strong vocabulary is essential for effective writing and communication in daily life. Wordly Wise 3000 employs a contextual approach to teach students how to approach unfamiliar words by identifying similarities to known words, using the word in context, breaking it down into parts, and looking it up. This series includes 3,000 carefully selected words from literature, textbooks, and SAT-prep books. Each lesson in Book 2 starts with a Word List containing pronunciations, parts of speech, concise definitions, and contextual sentences for each word. With 15 lessons, each consisting of 10 words, Book 2 focuses on building vocabulary while strengthening reading, writing, and critical thinking skills. Lessons teach new words through reading, writing, and a variety of activities designed to firmly associate words with their contexts. Starting in Book 2, vocabulary instruction becomes more sophisticated while continuing to prepare students for content area learning. Lessons focus on building vocabulary and strengthening reading, writing, and critical thinking skills. Comprehension of the vocabulary words is facilitated and reinforced through five different exercises repeated in each lesson, including reading-first strategies and Greek and Latin roots. The third edition of Wordly Wise 3000 maintains the same word lists as the second edition but updates the passages and question formats, aligning them with The Lexile Framework for Reading. Please note that the third edition is not compatible with second edition teacher's guides and resources. Wordly Wise 3000 Book 2, 3rd Edition, has 15 lessons with 150 words. Words taught in Book 2 include groom, boulder, soil, faucet, imitate, local, connect, settle, scholar, and more. This edition features 144 two-tone pages in a softcover format, suitable for Grade 2. Please Note: Some lessons present evolutionary views. Please note that this item is available for purchase by homeschools only.
