Take Aim! at Vocabulary

Vocabulary knowledge is a key factor for skillful reading across content areas. With this in mind, Read Naturally has developed a powerful new vocabulary program called Take Aim! at Vocabulary that is designed to boost students’ vocabulary knowledge in the critical middle grades.

Take Aim! at Vocabulary is a vocabulary program that is designed to increase the word knowledge of students who read at a fourth-grade level or higher. The Take Aim program was built on a foundation of vocabulary research and has been field-tested in real classrooms.

Students work mostly independently to learn sophisticated, high-quality words in a set of audio-supported lessons. Target words are taught in the context of high-interest, nonfiction stories. Students complete a variety of activities that deepen their understanding of the target vocabulary words plus a word puzzle that corrects their work. They also learn from mini-lessons on using context clues and analyzing word parts.

What’s Included

Student Textbooks
Each of the 12 full-color, illustrated textbooks includes a set of four related nonfiction, high-interest stories. Textbooks also include an illustrated glossary of all challenging words in the unit.
