WORDS YOU SHOULD KNOW FOR THE 11+ AND 13+ Verbal reasoning
can be notoriously hard to train children up for. In particular, a lot of
children stumble on vocabulary expectations. Similarly, children who are very
competent in English Literature can be completely stumped when asked to define
the meaning of words in a context. Even the most
voracious reader might not know some of the language examiners choose to
present students with. Below are a list of words commonly found on examination
papers and some tips for learning them. Learning tips: Is your child artistic? Make flip
cards. Buy coloured card and get them to cut our squares and write the word on
one side and a definition on the other. Play vocabulary games with them. Does your child like to be the one
in control? Let them test you on the meaning of words and get them to explain
the words you get wrong . Is your child a techno whiz? There
are a million apps for vocabulary expansion.
Get your child to play at least once a day. Small doses frequently has
been proven to improve vocabulary much more than giant, off putting chunks. Is your child visual? (And are you
very patient!) Try acting out the different words in a charades style affair. Your child should be learning a new
word a day minimum. Buy a fun word calendar. Here are some of
