Build content-area vocabulary to boost reading comprehension.
Created for students struggling with content-area vocabulary—including English language learners—the Language for Learning Intervention Kit provides a review of essential vocabulary strategies and practice in the context of science and social studies. This kid is ideal for students with a proficiency level of Low/Intermediate to Advanced/Transition. For struggling readers, choose a kit one level below grade to build proficiency.
