Importance of Vocabulary

A student’s vocabulary – the words he can understand when listening or reading and use when speaking or writing - is one of the most critical factors for being a successful reader and writer. Here are some of the reasons:

• Knowing the meanings of words helps you comprehend a text better. And since the ultimate goal of all reading is comprehension, the importance of a wide-ranging vocabulary cannot be exaggerated.
• All communication takes place with the help of words. A person with a strong vocabulary shines in all areas of communication - reading, writing, speaking and comprehension.
• When your child improves his vocabulary, he has more social and academic confidence.
