The Dog Ate My Dictionary by Hearth & Story is a delightful year-long curriculum designed to make vocabulary building an engaging and memorable experience. Perfect for homeschoolers, this course takes a playful twist on traditional learning, blending rigorous vocabulary practice with a touch of silliness.\r\n\r\nKey Features:\r\n\r\nInteractive Word Matching: Each week, students receive 8 new words and 8 definitions, needing to match them correctly and reconstruct their \u201cdictionary\u201d workbook, which, according to course lore, has suffered an unfortunate fate at the paws of the student\u2019s new puppy. This hands-on activity encourages active learning and retention.\r\n\r\nContextual Learning: Words are selected from the novels students are reading in the course, allowing them to encounter and use the vocabulary in context, reinforcing their understanding and application. Our sixth grade novels are Double Dutch by Sharon M. Draper, Starry River of the Sky by Grace Lin, and Watership Down by Richard Adams.\r\n\r\nDiverse Practice Exercises: Students engage in a variety of exercises designed to deepen their grasp of each vocabulary word, with spiral practice to ensure they are comfortable using these tricky words in writing.\r\n\r\nWhimsical and Fun Approach: At Hearth & Story, we believe learning is most impactful when it\u2019s enjoyable. Our unique \u2018destroyed dictionary\u2019 concept ensures that vocabulary lessons are not just educational, but also a delightful part of your student's week.\r\n\r\nBridge to Advanced Vocabulary: This course serves as a perfect transition from elementary spelling to middle school vocabulary studies, preparing students for more complex linguistic challenges.\r\n\r\nWho Should Choose The Dog Ate My Dictionary?\r\n\r\nThe Dog Ate My Dictionary is ideal for sixth-grade students who enjoy creative, hands-on learning experiences. It\u2019s perfect for homeschoolers looking to enrich their language studies with a fun and engaging vocabulary curriculum. While the vocabulary words tie closely to Hearth & Story\u2019s sixth grade novel studies, students not using Hearth & Story for literature can also use this course, as knowledge of the novels is not required.\r\n\r\nInvest in Your Child's Vocabulary Adventure with The Dog Ate My Dictionary!","_et_gb_content_width":"","content-type":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[185,63,183,23,179],"product_tag":[186,178,184,28],"class_list":["post-18643","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-hearth-story","product_cat-language-arts","product_cat-lindsey-sodano","product_cat-middle-school","product_cat-new-products","product_tag-hearth-story","product_tag-homeschool","product_tag-lindsey-sodano","product_tag-middle-school","first","instock","downloadable","virtual","taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"\n
