вЂњCrazy CluesвЂќ should be played only after a student has worked with a word list enough to be very familiar with the words. Blue word cards and green definition cards are randomly mixed, making it needlessly difficult to play in my opinion. The program remixes words from the group of words selected by the student each time the student plays, but words and definitions repeat from time to time.вЂќ Vocab MemoryвЂќ is played like memory card games, but matching words with their definitions rather than two identical items. вЂњVocab MatchвЂќ presents a matching exercise with six words and definitions. While many of these are very obvious, it still reinforces the definition in the studentвЂ™s mind. вЂњQuick TrainвЂќ presents a definition followed by two different words from which the student chooses the word that matches the definition. вЂњFlash cardsвЂќ can be flipped quickly to help students review words, their definitions, and their part of speech. Under вЂњMaster Words,вЂќ five activities help students master the words and their meanings. Most students will gravitate immediately toward the вЂњActivities and GamesвЂќ section which has three categories of activities: вЂњMaster Words,вЂќ вЂњCool Games,вЂќ and вЂњVocab Quizzes.вЂќ While various meanings of each word are taught here, the other activities on the site all use a single definition for each word. Since there are no games or activities with this section, it is likely to be used only by diligent students who want to dig deeper into word meanings. Students have an option to simply study words in an activity that is similar to reading through dictionary entries with вЂњWord Discover.вЂќ Word Discover defines words one at a time with various nuances of meaning and usage. The number of activities available for studying each group of words and the huge number of word lists are what sets this program apart from others. You could spend years working through all of these lists! If thatвЂ™s not enough, you can also create your own word lists, storing them in the Cloud so that they are accessible anywhere. On an easier level that is most likely appropriate for ESL students, there are lists of Most Common English Words and English Conversation Words. level) TOEFL Exam (advanced ESL words), GMAT exam (ten lists each for essential and supplementary words). Lists are included for a number of other purposes: GRE Exam (both Masters level and Ph.D. Students preparing for the SAT (11th grade) can use the ten SAT study lists with about 100 words per list. There are ten lists for each grade level for first through tenth grades, with the number of words per list gradually increasing. The grade-level lists that are likely to be most appealing to many homeschoolers begin with 26 words in the first of the ten lists for first grade, growing to 42 words on the tenth list for first grade. Words lists are extensive with the majority averaging about 100 words per list there are over 142,647 words in the programвЂ™s database. (It probably wonвЂ™t work on tablets or other devices since you need to use the keyboard and canвЂ™t have it blocking part of your screen.)
