* includes new features that help reinforce vocabulary, including weekly oral reviews and written assessments that ask students to apply their new words through group discussions, questions in test format, and an open-ended writing prompt.
* uses multiple approaches to teach vocabulary. Oral activities provide multiple opportunities to develop word meaning.
