I have some great websites that I've found that we've used in our Clinton Sylvan Learning Center as well as that I've used in a classroom. Please make use of these websites this summer and feel free to add some more that you have used in the comments section below. We can all benefit from shared knowledge, especially our kids!
This website is especially great for preparing for the SAT- for every correct answer, they donate 10 grains of rice through the World Food Programme to help end hunger—learn and do good at the same time!
You answer questions, they find words you may not know and help you to build your vocabulary. This is a great website for Middle Schoolers and up, but again especially useful in preparing for the SAT.
If your school uses the Sadlier-Oxford Vocabulary Workshop Book, pictured below, this is a must visit website to review words that were from previous school years or will see in the future.
This website uses dolche sight list words, lists that you create or lists from others- has games, practice and quizzes.
Spelling games using basic words.
Scramble with Friends, Words with Friends & Hanging with Friends (Free-Believe it or not- these are great for word building skills!)
Remember, these websites and apps are just SOME of the ones that we personally recommend and we have not been paid to sponsor any one of these links. Please explore and see what is out there, but keep in mind that these are not meant to replace the great things a teacher can provide your child. If you are still looking for additional help for your child, call the Clinton Sylvan at 908-638-6788 or the Flemington Sylvan at 908-806-4010.
