nansk Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I am replying only because you didn't get any replies today (and I don't like it when that happens to me, :)) I just googled "SAT vocabulary prep" and found this word list. Can your student work through it, look up each word in the thesaurus, write it on an index card, write the synonyms and antonyms at the back of the card, make up a sentence for each, etc.?

FloridaLisa Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 We've been working through AMSCO's Vocabulary for the College Bound Student. I'll probably have this dc read some of those SAT vocab-embedded books this summer. We'll just go to Barnes & Noble and I'll let him choose a book or two. My older three didn't need that, but this child definitely needs it. Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
