In Wordly Wise 3000 Book 2, each 15-word lesson begins with an alphabetized Word List that gives pronunciations, parts of speech, and concise definitions, and uses each word in a sentence. Some of the words taught in Book 2 include obedient, beverage, obscure, resemble, frivolous, heroic, rippled, wilderness, urban, suffocation, and resume. Definitions are followed by exercises that distinguish usage, create sentences and phrases, identify synonyms and antonyms, and complete analogies. Narrative topics in this book include: Seeing Eye Dogs, Cocoa Trees, Dinosaurs, The Pilgrims, Mount Everest, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Penguins, The First Thanksgiving, The Montgolfier Brothers, Harriet Tubman, Flying a Plane, The Mexican Revolution, Crocodiles, Thomas Edison, Earthquakes, Queen of Hawaii, Deserts, Walt Disney, Pompeii, and Aesop's Fables. |
