Customer Testimonials

I’ve loved using Word Web this year – it’s exactly what I was looking for over the past few years. As we place orders for next year, I will certainly be in contact.

—Lead Language Arts Teacher, Florida

I loaned your material to a school. But, they loved it so much that they wouldn’t give it back! So, I have to order more.

—Language Arts County Coordinator, Louisiana


I find it to be engaging and useful for vocabulary instruction. Working with the word parts is an effective way to increase vocabulary across the content areas. Along with the other features, the webs and graphics create novelty.

—Reading Specialist, Tulsa Public Schools

Students love the way it looks, so totally different from their regular vocabulary books. It expands their knowledge level through usage not memorization, and makes them more willing to work on their sentences and allows them to be more creative. It takes the mundane out of vocabulary, and middle school students in particular take to this program.

—Language Arts Program Coordinator, County School System, Indiana
