How to Use the Series
Start with your Secondary year. Learn a small group of words, explain each meaning in plain English, study the example and then write a different sentence without looking. Return later and retrieve the word again.
Essential vocabulary is the dependable layer. These are words students should increasingly recognise and use without forcing them into sentences.
Essential or Advanced?
Use Essential when a student is still building dependable control. Move into Advanced when most Essential words can be explained, contrasted and transferred into new contexts naturally.
