Vocabulary is becoming increasingly important for the HSPT/TACHS/COOP tests, and it helps to devote sufficient time to it, as it takes a long time to build an effective vocabulary.This book contains over 500 Core Vocabulary words that appear frequently in these tests, and uses some of the following techniques to help you remember these words faster and better!- Word Roots;Since many English words are derived from Greek & Latin roots, it makes sense to be aware of these. Knowing a single root can help you know a whole group of words! - Prefixes/Suffixes;Pay attention to the tone of the words, whether soft or hard, harsh or mild, negative or positive. This could help you guess when in doubt. Prefixes/Suffixes can often help you with identifying the meaning of a word, when in doubt.- Usage of the Word; Perhaps the Best way to increase your vocabulary is to read and practice. There is absolutely no substitute for that! Reading helps you learn new words from the context in which they are used, thereby making it easy to remember the new words and more importantly, how and when they are used. This book provides you with multiple examples of how a word is used in different contexts.With over 1000 practice exercises, you will get more than enough practice for the test!- Synonyms/AntonymsBeing familiar with related words, increases the number and variety of your mental associations.
