Are you looking for a Christian vocabulary program to boost your child\u2019s English? As homeschoolers, we naturally take a personal interest in our children\u2019s academic success. We picture raising mathematical geniuses, and literary geniuses, and geniuses in whatever we are teaching them.<\/p>\n
While we maybe realize that not all of us will end up with children who are quite as brilliant as all that, we expect at least to produce well-rounded, intelligent citizens, who will be able to hold their own in any normal situation.<\/p>\n
So we all understand the value of a good vocabulary.<\/p>\n
But how, exactly, do we go about teaching it? What methods are we going to employ in order to ensure that our children build a strong vocabulary?<\/p>\n
Sheep Among Wolves\u2019 Word of the Week Program is designed to help you in your quest!<\/p>\n

Building Vocabulary through Good Examples<\/strong><\/h5>\nThe Word of the Week (WOW) course is built around SAW Publishing\u2019s standard of good books<\/a>.<\/p>\n When we use the term good<\/em>, we mean that a book is helpful and not harmful in a spiritual sense, and that it leads us toward good while not increasing our knowledge of evil.<\/p>\n The WOW course is built around some of the best literature available in this respect\u2014Bible verses and classic hymns. This allows students to build vocabulary through positive examples that will lead them closer to God.<\/p>\n WOW is also built around our standard of great<\/em> books<\/a>.<\/p>\n Our definition of great describes books that are well-written from a literary perspective. This includes skillful development of content and ideas, and a good command of language and expression.<\/p>\n The hymns and Bible verses which form the basis of WOW are also some of the greatest literature available. That\u2019s what makes them such a great place to start expanding a child\u2019s vocabulary!<\/p>\n Each WOW lesson follows the same simple format, and includes:<\/p>\n Each lesson is provided in PDF format, and comes weekly by email.<\/p>\n Word of the Week is a free Christian vocabulary program that first ran in the fall of 2016, and was a real-time course sent out every Monday to subscribers. Users who signed up after the starting date received links to the previous lessons, and were then added to the list.<\/p>\n We have since upgraded the system so that all users will begin the course with lesson one, regardless of when they sign up. This makes it easier for subscribers to derive maximum benefit from the course.<\/p>\n Come to think of it, I think there are probably very few of us who are actually going to raise literary geniuses. Geniuses just aren\u2019t that common, I guess.<\/p>\n But I think we all have the opportunity to develop children who understand a broad range of vocabulary and can use it in appropriate situations. When we start them young enough, it won\u2019t be that hard to do, either.<\/p>\n So let\u2019s invest in our children\u2014and in their vocabulary\u2014so that we can equip them to be effective in choosing\u2014and using\u2014the words they need in every situation.<\/p>\n If you would like to sign up to receive the weekly WOW email, click on the sign-up button below.<\/p>\nBuilding Vocabulary through Great Literature<\/strong><\/h5>\n
