Grade 7 words: 7th Grade Vocabulary and Spelling Words
Grade 7 Spelling “Spelling by Sound and Structure” Set
34 lessons. Each lesson includes a list of 20 “New Words” and 5 “Review Words,” except every sixth lesson, which is completely review.
The main emphasis of this course is the study of Latin word elements—roots, prefixes, and suffixes. Learning to spell is the primary goal throughout, and the meanings of roots and affixes are helpful in expanding a student’s vocabulary.
Each lesson also has a review section that exercises phonetic and word-building concepts covered in earlier grade levels of this series. The last section of each lesson gives a brief history of the English language, providing some of the reasons for the modern spellings, pronunciations, and meanings of many English words.
A “Speller Dictionary” is included at the back of the book.
The teacher’s manual includes a reduced copy of the pupil’s text with the answers, teacher helps, and test sentences in the margins.

- Spelling Words and Sentences (optional multi-grade teacher’s book for spelling tests)
- Grades 5-8 Spelling Word Lists

Comprehensive Vocabulary Grade 7 by Pennington Publishing
The Comprehensive Vocabulary Grade 4 program provides systematic, efficient, and effective vocabulary instruction.
If you are looking for a comprehensive vocabulary program, featuring evidence-based morphological word study, this digital download (eBook) is just what your students need.
The Comprehensive Vocabulary program includes 56 lessons (print or fillable PDFs) with plenty of practice, along with vocabulary study guides, biweekly unit tests, and a final exam. The tests are provided in self-correcting Google forms and print formats. Lessons focus on the following components of vocabulary instruction:
- Multiple Meaning Words (L.4.a.)
- Greek and Latin Morphology (L.4.a.) featuring Greek and Latin Morphology Walls in interactive Google Slides (or print)
- Language Resources (L.4.c.d.)
- Figures of Speech (L.5.a.)
- Word Relationships (L.5.b.)
- Connotations (L.5.c.)
- Academic Language (Tier 2) Words (L.6.0)
Here’s how your students will master each slice of the vocabulary pie:
Multiple Meanings
Students practice grade-level homonyms (same spelling and sound) in context clue sentences which show the different meanings and function (part of speech) for each word.
Greek and Latin Morphology
Three criteria were applied to choose the grade-level prefixes, bases, and suffixes: 1. Frequency research 2. Utility for grade-level Tier 2 words 3. Word Part Memory Pair
Each odd-numbered vocabulary worksheet pairs a Greek or Latin prefix-base or base-suffix combination to enhance memorization and to demonstrate utility of the Greek and Latin word parts. Students add each of the 54 Greek and Latin word parts to personal Greek and Latin Morphology Walls, lesson by lesson, and drag and drop to create new academic language words with the word parts that have mastered to orthographic memory. Great review and extended learning before each biweekly test.
Language Resources
Students look up the Greek and Latin whole word in a dictionary (print or online) to compare and contrast their educated guesses to the denotative definition of the word. Students divide the vocabulary word into syl/la/bles, mark its primary áccent, list its part of speech, and write its primary definition.
Additionally, students write synonyms, antonyms, or inflected forms of the word, using either the dictionary or thesaurus (print or online). This activity helps students develop a more precise understanding of the word.
Figures of Speech
Students learn a variety of figures of speech (non-literal expression used by a certain group of people). The Standards assign specific types of figures of speech to each grade level. Students must interpret sentences which use the figures of speech on the biweekly unit tests.
Word Relationships
Students use context clue strategies to figure out the different meanings of homonyms in our Multiple Meaning Words section. In the Word Relationships section, students must apply context clues strategies to show the different meanings of word pairs. After students have mastered decoding, the program’s S.A.L.E. Context Clues Strategies will help students problem-solve the meanings of unknown words in their reading.
Connotations: Shades of Meaning
Students learn two new grade-level vocabulary words which have similar denotative meanings, but different connotative meanings. From the provided definitions, students write these new words on a semantic spectrum to fit in with two similar words, which most of your students will already know. For example, the two new words, abundant and scarce would fit in with the already known words, plentiful and rare in this semantic order: abundant–plentiful–scarce–rare.
Academic Language
Tier 2 words (academic vocabulary) should be a key focus of vocabulary instruction. The Academic Language section of the vocabulary lessons provides two grade-level words from the research-based Academic Word List. Students use the Frayer model four square (definition, synonym, antonym, and example-characteristic-picture) method to learn these words.
The Common Core authors and reading specialists (like me) refer to this process as learning vocabulary with depth of instruction.
Vocabulary Study Guides
Vocabulary study guides are provided for each of the weekly paired lessons for whole-class review, vocabulary games, and individual practice. Print back-to-back and have students fold to study.
Vocabulary Tests
Biweekly vocabulary tests assess both memorization and application. The first section of each test is simple matching. The second section of each test requires students to apply the vocabulary in the writing context. Answers follow.
Syllable Blending, Syllable Worksheets, and Derivatives Worksheets
Whole class syllable blending “openers” will help your students learn the rules of structural analysis, including proper pronunciation, syllable division, accent placement, and derivatives. Each “opener” includes a Syllable Worksheet and a Derivatives Worksheet for individual practice.
Answers follow.
Context Clues Strategies
Students learn the FP’S BAG SALE approach to learning the meanings of unknown words through surrounding context clues. Context clue worksheets will help students master the SALE Context Clue Strategies.
Vocabulary Acquisition and Use Resources
Greek and Latin word parts lists, vocabulary review games, vocabulary steps, and semantic spectrums provide additional vocabulary instructional resources.
Students who complete each of the Comprehensive Vocabulary Grades 4–8 grade-level programs will have practiced and learned much of the Academic Word Corpus and all of the skills of vocabulary acquisition. These students will have gained a comprehensive understanding of academic language and will be well-equipped to apply the skills of context clues strategies and structural analysis to read well and write with precision.

Vladimir Aleksandrovich Kuzmin
“
The training with Kuzmin V.A. took place in extreme conditions. My modem did not keep the connection at all. During the hour-long training, the connection was interrupted almost constantly. It is clear that in such conditions it is extremely difficult to teach something .
However, Vladimir Alexandrovich showed amazing restraint and patience. Repeatedly he called me back on his cell phone to give clarifications or comments.
With great effort, we managed to review three programs: ConceptDraw MINDMAP Professional Ru, GeoGebra and Ultra Flash Video FLV Converter. Vladimir Alexandrovich opened a course for me on the dist-tutor.
info platform and taught me how to connect and configure the Virtual Office, recommending that I study the possibilities of this resource in order to gradually move away from using Skype.
In the end, I really enjoyed the job! A calm explanation of the material, a friendly attitude, encouraging a distance student even in the most difficult situations – this is not a complete list of Vladimir Alexandrovich’s qualities as a distance teacher. I should study with such a wonderful tutor!

Nadezhda Vasilievna and I studied 5th grade mathematics. Classes were held at a convenient time for both parties.
If it was necessary to work out additionally after school hours, Nadezhda Vasilievna always went forward. You could call her just to ask a question about an incomprehensible problem from homework. My daughter has significantly improved her math skills and started showing good grades. We are very grateful to Nadezhda Vasilievna for her help this academic year, and we hope to continue our relationship in the fall.

My son started preparing for the Unified State Examination in Russian from the 10th grade. Olga Alexandrovna is a competent teacher, punctual, responsible person. She always tries to build the lesson so that it is as fruitful and interesting as possible. We are absolutely satisfied with the work of a teacher. Cooperation brings excellent results, and we continue it. Thank you.
