6th Grade Word Power questions parents ask
How do cognates help on tests?
Recognizing a root or a cognate gives a student an educated guess at an unfamiliar word instead of a blank.
Why include Kreyòl in an academic vocabulary page?
Haitian Creole speakers in the US often read English first; seeing both builds transfer in both directions.
