Title: Vocabulary for Christian Schools
First published: 2004
Description: Since its introduction in the 1980s, the BJU Press Vocabulary for Christian Schools has helped thousands of students increase their vocabulary skills. The philosophy behind the series is a reflection of the BJU Press philosophy as a whole: We use scripturally sound principles that enable teachers to give students the tools to truly comprehend the material at hand. Thus you will not find in these texts long lists of words to memorize. Rather, the emphasis of the series is on vocabulary principles, such as where our language came from; what common prefixes, roots, and suffixes mean; and how to discern the meaning of a new word based on already understood concepts. - Second edition introduction.
