Product Information

Does developing a high-level vocabulary need to be a tedious, frustrating task? Direct Hits doesn't think so. Research has shown that a powerful and vibrant vocabulary has a high correlation with success in school, business, the professions, AND standardized tests, including the PSAT, SAT, SSAT, and AP exams. Direct Hits Core Vocabulary offers a different approach. "Direct Hits' Core Vocabulary "focuses on high school vocabulary found in the classroom and on a variety of standardized tests. This book includes the following features: Selective vocabulary found on recent PSATs, ACTs, and SATs used in context. No more memorizing the definitions of long lists of seemingly random words in a vacuum Relevant, vivid, and memorable examples from literature, historic events, contemporary issues, and pop culture A Fast Review for each chapter, with quick definitions A Final Review with sentence completion questions, including complete solution explanations The book is organized into six easy-to-tackle chapters as follows: Chapters One and Two are devoted to 100 core words that have repeatedly appeared on the SAT and PSAT, as well as the Common Core Chapter Three introduces 30 words about interesting types of people, defined through examples from pop culture icons to make the words relevant and understandable to any teen Chapter Four uses historic figures and events to explain each vocabulary word Chapter Five focuses on the most frequently used prefixes in vocabulary study Chapter Six highlights tone words that are commonly tested in sentence completion and critical reading sections Formatted as a 6" by 9" paperback book instead of resembling a phone book, teens are comfortable carrying the Direct Hits Core Vocabulary book with them to study another word or two when time permits. Building on the success of previous five editions, the authors of Direct Hits Core Vocabulary - 6th Edition consulted secondary school teachers, tutors, parents, and students from around the world to ensure that these words and illustrations are on target for students. Together with the Direct Hits Essential Vocabulary and Direct Hits Advanced Vocabulary books, students will be prepared for success in high school, college, and beyond in a manner that is effective, worthwhile, and even fun!
