Post It Notes


Inspiration: Post It notes
Target Goal: Increasing vocabulary

Purpose:
For this activity the focus is on increasing vocabulary for the SAT exam taken during high school.  I searched on Google and found lists of words commonly found on the exam.  Try this site www.freevocabulary.com for words to use.

Supplies:
Post It notes
Pen



Directions:
1) Write vocabulary words and the definitions of the words on the Post It notes.
2) Put the notes in places around your house for your child to find and read.

Enjoy!

  1. Love this! The vocabulary word I still have on my mirror from my son's h.s. vocab. & comp. studies...

    sedulous - persistent, showing industry and determination

    I thought it was a great word to describe my son's amibitious nature and a worthy attribute for which to aim. Micah will graduate from Columbia U. in 2 weeks after 5+ years of sedulousness!

    Love how you posted the words around the house for context! Thanks for sharing!
