MUST REGISTER ON WEBSITE: https://www.dreamsforkidsdc.org/schedule Edge Ed is partnering with DFKDC to provide engaging, interactive academic content for students of all abilities. Our first series, Vocab Lab, meets virtually every Thursday from 1 - 2PM EST. Vocab Lab is a vocabulary development program featuring the World-Famous Clever Connections vocabulary building program. Clever Connections is a unique program featuring crucial high-level vocabulary words, each paired with a Connection that incorporates one or more powerful memory aides: rhyme, alliteration, syllabication, or mental imagery—often with a dose of PG-13 humor:  rhyme… facilitate – no need to wait  syllabication… imperturbable – not disturbable  alliteration… enmity – enemy  humor… apathy – you don’t give a crapathy Clever Connections are organized around opposing concepts in sets of ten; five good words are contrasted with five bad words; five smart words are set next to five dumb words. This construction takes advantage of the natural association patterns that humans use to learn language. Vocab Lab includes plenty of audience participation, so students stay highly engaged throughout. The classes are cooperative and fun!
