Choose the book, DVD, or both!
Teach students the basis for successful vocabulary development with important word-learning strategies! Over 90% of English words of two or more syllables are of Greek or Latin origin. Building Vocabulary provides a systematic approach to unlock the meaning of words by introducing word and word parts with strategies to help students:
- Decipher words and their meanings
- Break down words and create new words
- Build vocabulary
- Improve comprehension
Both the book and DVD feature research-based strategies, ideas, and resources to introduce and implement practical word-building applications.
