Teach vocabulary from the McREL word lists, textbooks, and general reading curriculum. Each six-page lesson presents a group of ten words. Students are introduced to the word definitions, and then they progressively apply the words to new contexts. There are 30 lessons and a total of 300 vocabulary words. The lessons are divided into three levels of difficulty:

• Primary Level (Grades K-1): Activities in this section have pictures to accommodate beginning readers. Lesson formats include definitions, fill-in-the-blanks, related meanings, rebus stories, comparisons, and picture scenes. Themes are geography, health, literature, science, and social studies.
• Intermediate Level (Grades 2-3): These activities require some reading and writing. Lesson formats include definitions, fill-in-the-blank, related meanings, crossword puzzles, scrambled sentences, and applied learning. Themes are English, grammar, geography, literature, science, and social studies.
• Advanced Level (Grades 4-5): Students use the targeted vocabulary in spoken and written contexts. Lesson formats include definitions, fill-in-the-blank, related meanings, crossword puzzles, writing sentences, and applied learning. Themes are English, research paper, geography, health, literature, science, and social studies.
