Not only does it define the words, offer diacritical marks to aid in pronunciation, and indicate the different parts of speech that word may function as, but it also gives students valuable practice in using the word in various contexts: finding synonyms and antonyms, reading contextual clues to determine which word most logically fits in the blank in a sentence, choosing best meaning when it is used in a particular phrase, etc. Each unit introduces twenty words, and the exercises typically take a student 30 minutes to complete. Every three units is a review section. With twelve units in all, you can complete the book in 16 weeks. It works as well for a class as it does for tutoring one-on-one. My only objection is that the answer key costs $100. Ridiculous. Any teacher who is good with words him-/herself can do the exercises and come up with the right answers also. When you come to a question where the answer is not obvious (on some of the review analogies, for example), even though you know the meaning of the words, then you realize what trouble the students also have with that question because it was simply not well-composed in the first place! But there aren't many of those. I have taught for many years and find that students' vocabularies seem to be becoming more and more limited as recreational reading seems to be declining. A direct study of vocabulary, as this series provides, is a very good idea. Book C works well for the average 8th grader. The similar construction of the units makes individualizing the lessons very workable. After students take the diagnostic test, I put those scoring over 75% in a higher book, those scoring under 35% in an easier book. It all works! Review: Best vocabulary program in a book I have encountered ... - This is by far the best and most complete vocabulary workbook series I have ever encountered. Trying to get my kids up to speed in the reading comprehension and writing departments has been an ongoing struggle. My only regret is that I did not find this program earlier for my 8th grader, and at all for my 2nd year college student. What I would recommend parents to do is to work with this book series alongside your kids - don't expect them to do this on their own and be effective. Many kids may not - let me reword that, will not - understand the importance of building a mental lexicon that they have internalized enough to be able to use in various contextual settings. This program takes the students through exercises that aid this internalization dramatically. I read a comment where it said that the likelihood of them using any of the words taught in these books is non-existent. The only reason why that is so is because the commenters did not make the effort themselves to develop the vocabulary in the first place. If you have it, you will use it - and in the appropriate setting and context! I believe command on vocabulary correlates with success in high school courses (helping bridge the C to B, and B to A gaps), improves SAT/ACT performance, and enhances the quality of college application essays. But most importantly, it improves the freedom and fluency of our kids to express themselves accurately and powerfully, in a way that that they can be heard and taken seriously not only in school, but later on in life. It also improves their self-image, and helps them become better examples for others to follow. All in all, I can't recommend this enough - I will certainly be continuing with this series for my son through his upcoming high school journey. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,427,698 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,780 in Vocabulary Books | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 113 Reviews | ## Images ![Sadlier Vocabulary Workshop [Paperback] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/412xVyoksdL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent book for learning vocabulary *by R***S on 30 July 2016* As an English teacher, I really like the whole Sadlier-Oxford series of Vocabulary Workshop books.

The price was good being that it is not something that I planned to buy. It is exactly what she needed and serves the purpose very well. It was not torn or written in. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sadlier Vocabulary Workshop, Level C, Common Core Enriched Edition, 9780821580080, 0821580086, 2013 - Elements of Language: Third Course - Conceptual Physics: The High School Physics program --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/426158281-sadlier-vocabulary-workshop-paperback](https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/426158281-sadlier-vocabulary-workshop-paperback) --- *Product available on Desertcart Oman* *Store origin: OM* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
