The Vocabulary Teacher s Book of Lists offers content for literally hundreds of vocabulary improvement lessons
for elementary and secondary teachers, self-improving adults,
home schoolers, and students studying for their SATs. While there
are dozens of shorter high interest lists of words, the core of
the book is based on Latin and Greek roots and prefixes. But the
largest list is Homophones. In fact it is one of the largest lists
of homophones you will ever use. This list, like many others,
is appropriate for spelling lessons or writer s reference as well
as vocabulary improvement. There are two dozen teaching methods
in the Methods chapter and teaching suggestions to help improve
reading and writing are scattered throughout the book. The lessons
can be as short as a word-a-day or as long as a school year. The
range of difficulty can go from upper elementary to college freshman
classes, and be as diverse as adult education to English language
learners.
