About this item

Promote a child’s thinking skills with the 22 dictionary and writing activities in this book. Each exercise spotlights an associated group of words – from “layers of the earth” to “spiny skinned invertebrate animals” to “spheres in nature.” The “Webbing” technique used throughout the book involves writing each featured word in one of the ovals provided, counting syllables, alphabetizing the words, using the words to answer questions, writing definitions, using them in sentences, locating requested words/terms using an encyclopedia, and more.
