Synopsis:
Further your SAT vocabulary knowledge to get farther down the road to success
Seberson Method: New SAT® Vocabulary Workbook helps students master more than 700 high-frequency words that frequently appear on the test’s Reading, Writing, and Essay sections. The book’s approach reflects changes made to the SAT in recent years, focusing on more contextual vocabulary understanding than rote memorization.
Each of the 145 bite-size lessons features a theme to help improve vocabulary retention, and each includes an activity to test understanding. It’s a modern workbook designed to give college-bound students the edge needed to improve their SAT scores.
The Seberson Method includes:
- Contextual learning—Vocabulary is organized into sections focused on real topics you’ll encounter on the SAT such as history and science.
- Master tricky topics—Learn the difference between similar words and phrases with different meanings.
- Now or later—This focused approach works equally well for students who are taking the test in a week or in a year.
This workbook is a perfect resource for anyone looking to master the SAT’s vocabulary section with the most contemporary information and methods available.
Review:
So the kids are home with nothing to do? No problem, give your middle and high schoolers this workbook, to not only learn vocabulary words, but to work on hints for taking the SAT test! It can actually work for helping them with school tests too, but the concentration is for the SAT/PSAT. With 145 lessons and 700 words, even being home for 30 days can result in a great improvement in vocabulary for your child/student! I love how the definitions is defined in context as for my dyslexic kid, that really helps her to understand and remember words! This is her new vocabulary (and spelling!) book for the rest of the year and into next year! We love it and your child may just find they do too!
