Description
The most advanced vocabulary learning tool in the App Store!6th Grade Vocabulary Prep was designed to improve vocabulary skills in the classroom and at home:
• Click to listen to a pronunciation of each word, its meaning, and a sample sentence
• Study hundreds of vocabulary words at your own pace with guided step-by-step learning
• Specifically appropriate content chosen at the 6th grade level
• Students can read through words and definitions as many times as they need for review
• Word and definition quizzes are used to reinforce learning, ensuring that students understand each word in a section before they continue
• When they're ready, students can take the test to move on to the next level (they'll need to get at least 90% correct to advance)
"Love this app, the words are a little more advanced than the younger grade levels."
"I'm learning English as second language and this is a great app. Gives word, definition, and part of speech. I really liked it. I learned pretty fast and it was easy to remember."
Teachers: sets of vocabulary words from this app can be assigned as activities in Apple's Schoolwork app
> No In-App Purchase required, all content is included!
