Download or read book Improve Your Word Power written by Caroline Taggart and published by Michael O'Mara Books. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Put your vocabulary skills to the test with this witty and engaging book. Improve Your Word Power is primarily a collection of multiple-choice challenges in which the reader is asked to decide which definition of a given word is correct. But it's actually so much more than that. Each topic is themed - from words borrowed from French to words about colours; words from Shakespeare to words that sound alike - and the answers are wonderfully informative and accessible, each giving readers the chance to say 'Gosh! I didn't know that!' even with quite familiar words. Interspersed throughout are boxes that feature odd definitions, confusable words and fun facts that make the language come to life. Written by Sunday Times bestselling author Caroline Taggart, this is a book that is aimed at readers who want to improve their vocabulary for the sheer enjoyment of it - and have fun doing so.

Download or read book Increase Your Word Power written by Dorothy A. Fontaine and published by Barrons Educational Series. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Dorothy Fontaine shows how to apply the teaching theory of renowned educator Howard Gardner to the practice of building students' word power for academic success. More than 20 years ago, Gardner first offered the education profession his now famous theory of Multiple Intelligences, or MI. Widely accepted today for its beneficial results, MI contends that every student is equipped with eight or more separate types of intelligence, but each student is stronger in some intelligence sources, weaker in others. Multiple Intelligences include logical-mathematical, musical, spatial, and contact with nature, among others. Gardner's approach to learning starts by discovering each student's several areas of intellectual strength, then concentrating on those specific strengths as starting points for educating the student in all subjects. In this book, author Dorothy Fontaine focuses Gardner's MI theory and applies it in ways designed to help students build the strong vocabulary they'll need for success as they go on to higher education. For example, among her suggestions for teaching vocabulary building to a “Musical/Rhythmic Learner” . . . Put new vocabulary words and sentences that clearly define them to the tunes of popular songs. Share these songs with one another. And for the “Outdoors/Naturalist Learner” she suggests. . . Go outside to study vocabulary. This is your natural environment. Relate the vocabulary words to your observations of nature each day. Many, many more suggested approaches to learning are presented for all eight intelligence types. Both parents and teachers will value Dorothy Fontaine's book for its practical application of Gardner's highly regarded theory. Each chapter of this book concentrates on one of Gardner's eight basic intelligence sources, and then outlines strategies for translating that intelligence source into the learning of words and their meanings. Approximately 125 new words are presented in each chapter—each word given with its definition, part of speech, and an example sentence. A master list of approximately 1,000 words at the back of the book brings all new words together for review. A series of “Quick Quizzes” throughout the book will help students gauge their word-learning progress.
