Overview

Junior Wordwise Workbooks 1 and 2 aim to improve students' spelling skills and vocabulary by reinforcing spelling rules through activity-based worksheets.

Each workbook is divided into twenty units with each unit following the same basic format including:
- ten keywords linked through theme and spelling
- word meanings and their use in context
- spelling exercises
- keywords in context
- relevant spelling rules along with exercises

After each five units, there is a revision or consolidation unit. Answers to all the exercises are printed in the back of the book. Students are encouraged to refer to a dictionary if necessary to complete the activities and to check their work.

Junior Wordwise Workbooks 1 and 2 are suitable for a wide range of students but are probably most appropriate for students in years 7 to 10; or students in later years who need extra practice in spelling and vocabulary development.
