Synopsis:

An Exploration of the Interior of Language for Academically Motivated Secondary Students Volumes III *Extensively tested in grades 8-12 * Appropriate for academically motivated grades 6-7 as well. *Excellent for preparing students for SAT's and PSAT's Here is a vocabulary building curriculum like no other. It is a system which heavily uses ETYMOLOGY not memorization. Words are presented as a system of thinking, a way of building, analyzing, spelling, pronouncing, using and choosing words. The beauty of this approach is that the student fully knows far more than the list of words encountered in this course; he or she knows the tens of thousands of words which are not listed, but which are expressions of the system. This vocabulary study is intended as a weekly effort, built on a cumulative basis. Every test reinforces every list. Through constant review, ever increasing familiarity is built. This is a tremendously wonderful undertaking that combines learning and fun for the students. There are 30 lessons in each book. In Book One there are 500 stems, both Greek and Latin, followed by 250 words made of those stems. (The term "stems" includes all word pieces: prefixes, suffixes, and roots
