The most advanced vocabulary learning tool in the App Store! 5th Grade Vocabulary Prep was designed to improve vocabulary skills in the classroom and at home: • Click to listen to a pronunciation of each word, its meaning, and a sample sentence • Study hundreds of vocabulary words at your own pace with guided step-by-step learning • Specifically appropriate content chosen at the 5th grade level • Students can read through words and definitions as many times as they need for review • Word and definition quizzes are used to reinforce learning, ensuring that students understand each word in a section before they continue • When they're ready, students can take the test to move on to the next level (they'll need to get at least 90% correct to advance) "This is a great way to learn about 5th grade spelling and vocabulary it can help you get better grades in school and be a better speller" "Amazing app - This app is very helpful to my daughter's vocabulary" "Great app for 4th and 5th graders.
