Picture Books that Build Vocabulary
The words for Week 9 are from the picture book, The Gingerbread Man by Jim Aylesworth and Barbara McClintock. It turns out that my son has “Text Talk” at school and this is the source of all the SAT Vocabulary Words for Kindergarteners. They read a picture book and then talk about the “big words.” Picture books are great sources for not only gorgeous artwork, a complete story with a beginning, middle, and end in about 36 pages, but rich language!! Did I mention that I LOVE picture books?!
p.s. I have a category of posts on SAT Vocabulary through Picture Books for Kindergarteners here.

devoured: My dog was so hungry that he devoured his dinner.
