Excel Basic Skills: Building Your Vocabulary Skills Years 5-6

The Building Your Vocabulary Skills is a 3-book set of workbooks to help children increase their vocabulary and become more confident in using new words correctly. Each book is divided into single-page activities with each page using a different theme to help your child learn new words.

In the activities, children can practise a range of vocabulary skills, such as:
- matching words to definitions
- recognising synonyms and antonyms
- understanding idioms (non-literal sayings)
- expanding their knowledge of verbs, adjectives and other parts of speech
- recognising homophones (words that sound the same but are spelt differently)

This series of books are designed to help your child at home, which will in turn improve their confidence in reading, writing, spelling and comprehension exercises at school. It would be useful for children to have a quality dictionary at hand when doing these exercises. This can avoid guesswork if they are unsure of an answer. Theoretically, then, there will be no errors for parents to correct, yet children will have still have added new words to their vocabularies.
