One of the purposes of this book is to begin to build an interest in words. This book will teach some vocabulary, but its real purpose is to awaken a deeper interest in words--all kinds of words: clipped words (for example, "gym" for "gymnasium"), abbreviations (like "MO" for "Missouri"), and origins of the days of the week (like "Moon's Day" for "Monday"). Also, Vocabulary Fun reviews contractions, onomatopoetic words (for example, "buzz" for the sound a bee makes), and common prefixes and suffixes. Reproducible Answers included |
