Vocabulary Worksheets
This is one topic area that we are paying a great deal of attention to. We hope to have a large library of vocabulary words available to you for all preschool through middle school grade levels. All the words that make up a language are collective called vocabulary. When we are referring to the mastery of those language terms by a person, we could think of it as their vocabulary or word library. We can further define a person's vocabulary as words that they fully understand as their active vocabulary. There are terms that they understand, but do not use in language as passive vocabulary. These worksheets will help students expand their internal vocabulary.
