240 Vocabulary Words 6th Grade Kids Need To Know: 24 Ready-to-Reproduce Packets That Make Vocabulary Building Fun & Effective

I homeschool and I used the grade 5 workbook (240 Vocab Words) last year and decided to go ahead and purchase this one for grade 6 year because the one last year worked great for us. I love the workbook. It's a quick learn on new words, grammar, etc. Fun fun!

I purchased this after moving to a very small school and became the Social Studies and Language Arts teacher for grades 6-12 (there were 5 teachers for grades K-12 so it was a very small school). I went to college for Social Studies, so was in very unfamiliar territory for vocabulary in language arts. This became my Holy Grail for middle school vocabulary (grades 6-8 all in one class together) for a year. Since all of middle school were in one class, I couldn't use it the next year as two of the grades would have already completed everything, otherwise I would have used it over and over. It had great activities to help the kids learn the meanings of the words and learn how to use the words.

My 11 yr old is able to do the work in this book pretty well. I homeschool her & nice to have stuff in a ready to go format that is easy for both of us to understand. Would recommend

Great selection of words, and with each set of words, your learner will be exposed to synonyms and antonyms as well, so it's almost like two sets of words for each section. There are several different types of activities that give lots of opportunity for practice without getting repetitive. Very happy with this purchase - will buy the next year's edition when the time comes.

My daughter really enjoys completing the lessons in this book. I think the lessons are challenging enough/on level for 6th grade.

The vocabularies in this book is a little too hard for my kid, and the vocabularies definition are not detailed.

I noticed that my kids needed to learn more words & I wanted to grow my kids' vocabulary, so we started with this book a few weeks ago. We sit down & make flash cards using the words in each lesson & then I let them do the exercises after learning the words. My kids are 5th & 7th grade, some words they already know (about %25) but it's a good revision & they would be discouraged if they knew non of the words so this works out perfectly.

As a mother of six who has been homeschooling for 17 years, I highly recommend this workbook. My 12-year-old daughter loves it, because it is interesting and informative. I like it because it is challenging, but doable. Each lesson is three pages long, and my daughter does one a day. Answers are in the back, so it's super easy to correct. I would highly recommend this workbook. My daughter already had an excellent vocabulary, but this is a great addition to her curriculum and has taught us BOTH many new words.

A hreat book!
