DIGITAL PDF DOWNLOAD — NO PHYSICAL ITEM.

Exactly what is included

• 16 original vocabulary cases: four definitions, four examples, four contrasts and four inferences
• A clue map and worked example
• A two-page glossary, answer keys and a review page

Four PDF editions contain the same 28-page pack: A4 color, A4 low ink, US Letter color and US Letter low ink. Choose the edition matching your paper and printing preference. These are alternative editions, not four different activity packs. Each 28-page total includes the cover, instructions, activities and answer or support pages; it is not a count of unique activities.

A practical way to begin

Read a case before checking the glossary. Make a tentative meaning guess, identify the strongest clue and try the meaning in the sentence. Then use the glossary and answer guidance to discuss or revise the choice.

Who it is for

Suggested ages 7–10 with adult support. Ages are a guide, not a test. Read prompts aloud, accept spoken answers or drawings, and pause when needed.

Supplies and important guidance

A pencil and printed pages. The included glossary is sufficient; a dictionary is optional.

The fictional examples are reading tasks, not instructions to build, test or operate equipment. Suggested ages describe supported use, not a measured reading level.

Print the pages you need

English-language portrait PDFs in A4 and US Letter. Select the file for your paper and print single-sided at actual size / 100%. Check the print preview; if your printer clips an edge, use fit to printable area. No activity depends on exact physical scale. A PDF reader, printer, paper and any supplies are your responsibility. No physical toy, book or equipment is included.

Household use

The purchasing household may print and reuse the pages with its own children. Do not sell, redistribute or publicly upload the files or printed pages, or use them as a shared classroom or business resource. Contact WonderKidsToy through the store before copying beyond one household.

Common questions

Do I need to print all four files?

No. The A4 and US Letter color and low-ink files repeat the same activities. Choose one edition and print only the pages you need.

Is this a physical book or toy?

No. This is a printable digital activity pack. Printing and equipment are not included.

Can an adult help with the activities?

Yes. The pack is designed for adult-supported, flexible use. Spoken answers, pointing or drawings may be used where helpful.

Does this replace a formal learning program?

No. It is not an accredited curriculum, clinical program or assessment. No particular learning outcome or compatibility with a toy model is promised.

How can I get printing help?

Contact WonderKidsToy through the store and include WKT-DIG-232, version 1.0. Do not include private information about a child.
