Opis

SAT(r) Vocab 800: making SAT vocabulary acquisition effective and engaging 1. SAT Vocab 800 contains 800 of the most common words used in the SAT Critical Reading section. It doesn't, however, merely list the words and force the student to devise ways to memorize them. Each of its 40 chapters is divided into 2 lessons of 10 words--a perfect sum to absorb and review in one sitting. The lessons have a pre-test, definitions containing the primary and secondary meanings of the word, and 3 reinforcement activities. At the end of each chapter is a final exam along with a fill-in-the-blank essay. Contents of Each Chapter Pretest (Words 1-10) Definitions Sentence Completion Quick Vocabulary Quiz Mid-Term Examination (Words 1-10) Pretest (Words 11-20) Definitions Sentence Completion Quick Vocabulary Quiz Final Examination Themed Essay (fill-in blanks) 2.
