Here’s a Free Interactive Vocabulary Learning Site

Tonight, I had fun at Vocabulary.com, where I learned that I don’t know nearly as many words as I thought I did!  On Vocabulary.com, take free vocabulary quizzes or assign quizzes to your students. Answer a question, and if you’re wrong, you’ll read a definition of the word and you’ll later review that word again.  Answer the question correctly, and you’ll move on to other words!

My favorite feature, as a homeschool teacher, is that I can assign my students to paste a text into Vocabulary.com and the program suggests words that could be studied.  When I input text from the Bill of Rights, I was suddenly not as good as I thought I was at vocabulary!  This is a great way to make sure your children are understanding a text.

Below is a description of the program from the developers:

Vocabulary.com is a new FREE site that’s focused on teaching vocabulary in a way that keeps kids engaged. Students don’t study at Vocabulary.com, they play The Challenge, a game that rewards vocabulary learning and effort. It’s also adaptive; the site offers more than 120,000 questions to teach more than 10,000 words, so it chooses words and questions based on how you perform over time.  With The Challenge, if you miss a word, we keep working with you until you master it.

To Learn More, visit the How It Works page

Or just get started improving your Vocabulary!  I hope you do better than I did!

Freely Educate is written for those, like our family, who don't want the box. There are many places for "box-thinkers" to go. This place is for those who think outside the box. I hope to give you affirmation and advice on bravely choosing to educate creatively and individually. - Lori Seaborg
