We feel that strong vocabulary is a necessity in every content area. According to Marzano, a leading educator and researcher, learning vocabulary is most effective when the word or concept is connected to a symbol, definition, and repeated exposure, as well as put into context. We try and fulfill all of these strategies in our vocabulary units.

Our favorite creation is the SAT unit. It includes 10 weeks (!) of activities. You would probably spend 50+ hours creating all of these activities. We promise you will not be disappointed in our products.
