[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just read with her! Honestly, that’s it. All kinds of books at all levels on all subjects. Drilling vocab is a slow, boring way to learn a language. Just read![/quote] +1000 Get a library card and go every week to check out a bunch of story books. Don’t be afraid to get books for younger kids too. Picture books are very rich in vocabulary. While they may be “easy” to read, they will provide a lot of exposure to settings and events to give more context to the words your child already knows. If you also know English, let your kid read the easier books to you, and you can read harder books to them. In addition, find a chapter book series that your kid can read on their own. Also hit up non-fiction like the DK series of books on all sorts of topics. A 2nd grader doesn’t need vocabulary drills, they need high volume exposure to words.[/quote]
