Words in Context · Std 6–8
A vocabulary course for Std 6 to 8 that teaches the skill, not the list: reading the sentence around an unknown word, taking the word apart, hearing which words travel together, and telling apart the pairs that trip up every student. Six units, each ending in a marked practice sheet, with sentences to read aloud so new words enter your speech and not only your notebook. Lifetime access.
Enrolment and classes run on LangVR, the BRETS learning platform.
