Teach vocabulary in English or Spanish
Words Around Me® helps students with unique learning needs successfully learn 275 common words, as well as 186 plurals for people, places, things, and actions. With help from an encouraging character named Greenie, students learn to associate spoken words with a variety of visual representations including photographs, drawn images, and animation.

Students progress through five activities: Word Identification, Plurals, Categorization, Sameness, and Difference. Four Review Games provide plenty of opportunities for reinforcement. A flexible management system allows teachers to customize the program for students of different ages and abilities and to track student progress.

Words Around Me is especially appropriate for students with special needs, students learning English as a second language, and early learners. Through this sequence of activities, students identify the spoken word with pictures of the word, reinforce word concepts, and develop visual perception, memory, listening, categorization, and comparison skills.
