SAT(r) Vocab 800: making SAT vocabulary acquisition effective and
engaging 1. SAT Vocab 800 contains 800 of the most common words
used in the SAT Critical Reading section. It doesn't, however,
merely list the words and force the student to devise ways to
memorize them. Each of its 40 chapters is divided into 2 lessons of
10 words--a perfect sum to absorb and review in one sitting. The
lessons have a pre-test, definitions containing the primary and
secondary meanings of the word, and 3 reinforcement activities. At
the end of each chapter is a final exam along with a
fill-in-the-blank essay. Contents of Each Chapter Pretest (Words
1-10) Definitions Sentence Completion Quick Vocabulary Quiz
