Grade 3 Vocabulary Building Worksheets
| Lessons 1-36
provide you with important worksheets to assist in reaching mastery of
the 800+ reading words designated as "mandatory" reading
vocabulary for Grade 3. Each Lesson covers 24-28 new vocabulary words
and typically requires 1 week for complete mastery with 8-9 year old
students. Words have been arranged from the "Most
Common" at the beginning Lessons to the "Lesser Common"
toward the end. This provides you the most logical and
efficient order for instruction throughout the |
school
year. Worksheet exercises include the strategies - "Recognition
Memory testing" - "Scrambled Letters" - and
"Sentence Writing Practice" for enhancing word
memorization. There are 4 worksheets per week which give you a
total of 144 worksheets for the entire 3rd Grade school year. When
students can correctly read 90% of the vocabulary words presented in
these worksheets, our research has shown they will routinely score in
the top 25% on national standardized reading tests. |
