Ages 12 through 17. Provide your students with a "vocabulary workout" as they learn new words and strengthen verbal reasoning skills. Each lesson begins with a short story that is presented orally. Stories related to a variety of problems commonly encountered by adolescents are included. Skills emphasized include defining words, using context to identify word meanings, comparing word meanings, using synonyms and antonyms, identifying grammatical functions, and answering questions using new words.

Use the activities to teach new vocabulary and to help students develop thinking skills that are critical for success in problem-solving situations. The activities are appropriate for students with language disorders and learning disabilities.

The worksheet activities are organized as follows:
