Word Lab Web

Learn vocabulary & improve context clue skills from lists of high frequency words

Overview

World Lab Web helps students to learn vocabulary through a series of exercises. Vocabulary lists are created by curating words used in academic texts and literature commonly read by each grade level. Word Lab Web is available for a per student, per year license.

APPROACH

Students join a class by signing up for Word Lab Web (WLW) and attaching their account to a teacher’s class. WLW presents students with a list of vocabulary words, either from a particular text (e.g. A Wrinkle in Time, Charlotte’s Web, etc.) or from an academic set (e.g. Common Core-related words.) Students then move through the program to learn the meaning of, and practice with, these words.

Types of practice problems include using the words to complete a sentence, substituting words into a sentence, or completing analogies. WLW allows students to progress when students have achieved proficiency in the words being taught.

WLW provides several vocabulary lists specifically for English Language Learners. Key parts of the program are also available in both English and Spanish, to ensure ELLs’ learning.

PRICING

Word Lab Web is available for between $10 and $15 / student / year, depending on volume. Free trials may be available by contacting the company.
