Tougher GCSEs

The tougher GCSE courses have exposed a significant gap between students, related to their literacy levels, in particular their breadth of vocabulary. Help your child to close that gap.

FOR YOUNGER CHILDREN why not play the ‘Thesaurus game – describing a person’. You can adapt this to describing places, animals, feelings and so on.

FOR OLDER CHILDREN try the ‘one new word a day’ game.www.dictionary.com/wordoftheday/ See who can use the new word the most often in the correct context.

Clear Steps + Education can support you in expanding your child’s vocabulary in numerous ways that have proven to be effective. Contact us for further information www.clearstepsplus.co.uk
