More on the importance of developing a powerful vocabulary

The Headmistress pointed to a recent post by Mama Squirrel. Mama Squirrel is responding to a recent article in the GlobeAndMail.com. The article is on vocabulary and asks Are we losing our lexicon? There is a push to expose children to fewer words, so they don't have as expansive vocabulary. Mama Squirrel argues it is imortant to help children develop a large vocabulary and has suggestions on how to help.

Mama Squirrel's post and the article are both worth reading.
