Vocabulary Research
The vocabulary research is ready to use and perfect for upper level vocabulary development. I use these weekly during units that do not have clear vocabulary sets that accompany them. Try having students choose words out of text that they are reading for class to research. I'm always impressed that students don't choose simple words or words their friends are doing.
Websites that I like to use for students to research with this page are: http://www.merriam-webster.com/
