Students will be given vocabulary challenges to dig more into the words. They will expand their knowledge of vocabulary through origin, pronunciation, definition, prefixes, suffixes, context, synonyms, and antonyms. Strengthen their vocabulary will enhance their skills in writing, comprehension, and spelling.

I have used these book as extended learning/ESL extended activities for three years. I love these books!! I read along with the children with the same enthusiasm with each battle. It is a joy to teach, read and journey with my students. I read at a very early age and remember the joy of a new book or an escape in time. I still read and listen to multiple books and participate in book clubs myself. I share book titles and suggestions with my friends. I hope to ignite this lifelong hobby to your child.

With an ESL background, I find non-fiction reading and vocabulary studies to improve students' overall skills. Science reading adds a fun element to reading while enhancing their English skills.

On a side note, my husband has a zoology degree and over thirty years experience in this field. He is my go to animal adviser to help me gain some extra animal knowledge to pass along.
