The Vocabulary Vault: 20 Words That Unlock School Success | Grades 2-5 | Common Core-Aligned Vocabulary Practice

Twenty useful words, one set at a time. Each word has a kid-friendly definition and example sentence, then a spot for the student's own sentence, and the sets can be done in any order.

Aligned to Common Core State Standards (CCSS): L.2.6, L.3.6, L.4.6, and L.5.6 (using words correctly in your own sentences, across all 20 words and six fill-in-the-blank items). Also supports L.2.4, L.3.4, L.4.4, and L.5.4 (working out unknown words), in part, because every word comes with its definition, so students never work out an unknown word's meaning.

Inside you'll find:

✓ Student practice exercises

✓ Self-check reference card

✓ Progress tracker

✓ Parent answer key

✓ Standards alignment chart

✓ Parent guide

✓ "Now What?" next-step guide
