Lessons allow students to teach themselves. Chapters address learning new words from context; enlarging vocabulary through central ideas; using Anglo-Saxon prefixes, Latin prefixes, Latin roots, and Greek word elements; expanding vocabulary through derivatives; and by understanding word relationships and word analogies. Each chapter contains exercises for using the concepts taught. A dictionary of words taught in the text is included at the back of the book. An answer key is available. Consumable worktext.
