👶 What to expect at ages 6-10

Children aged 6-10 are beginning to understand that words can have multiple layers of meaning. They might struggle with words that look similar but have distinct definitions, so they need to focus on understanding the nuance rather than just matching letters.

🏠 At home and in class

Play a quick game at dinner where everyone has to name another word for a common object (like calling an apple a 'fruit' or a snack). This helps expand their vocabulary by connecting specific names to broader categories.

💡 Tips

• Try to say the meaning in your head before looking at the options to avoid being distracted.
• If you see a red flash, don't worry; the correct answer is still waiting for you to click it.
• When the button turns green, take a split second to hear the word in your mind to lock in the new vocabulary.
