has the verbal equivalent of asaw,a pair of pliers,and a screwdriver canaccomplish a lot more with words than someonewho has only a “hammer.”  \nThe more words your child has at his finger-tips,the more precise he can be when expres-sing his thoughts.At school and in the worldof work,the ability to present ideas clearlyis a key element of success.By expandingyour child's vocabulary,you can improve hissuccess at school,boost his IQ,and improvefuture job opportunities.  \nBecause words help people manage in aworld full of information,the larger your child'svocabulary is,the better he'll be able to gaincontrol over school subjects and life in general.He will be able to articulate questions aboutproblems at school and feel more comfortabletalking about his deeper feelings at home.  \n4  \nThe single most effective thing parentscan do to expand their children's voca-bulary is to read with them and encouragean interest in a variety of books.Talkingabout what is being read will help yourchild relate new words to ones he alreadyknows.That's how vocabularies grow!  \n## Read anduse context.\n\nThe best way to start building your child'svocabulary is to read books.Have her pointout words she wants to learn,and help herfigure out what each word means by lookingat the sentences around it.Phrases like “that is”or “for example”may indicate a definition isgoing to be given.But even if the new wordisn't clearly defined,she can discover themeaning from information provided by thesurrounding words.  \n6  \n## Look for synonymsand antonyms.\n\nHelp your child find different words forthe ones she uses every day.Synonymsare words that have the same meaning(warm and tepid);antonyms are wordswith opposite meanings(hot and cold).When she encounters a new word,she canunderstand it better if it is related to afamiliar word.Searching for synonymsand antonyms encourages her to discoverdifferent ways of expressing her ideas.  \n## Rhyming andhomophones.\n\nChildren love the sounds that wordsmake.Rhyming games using poems andsongs will increase vocabulary as yourchild hunts for words that rhyme.Wordsthat sound the same,but have differentspellings or meanings are called homo-phones (like tale and tail).Have her makeup sentences that use homophones,thentalk about the meaning of each word.  \n## CompoundWords.\n\nou can take two words your child knowsand join them together to form a newword.These compound words can beintroduced easily because he alreadyunderstands the pieces of the new word.You can also take a compound word healready knows and break it apart to showhow the meaning of each word combinesto make the compound word.  \n9  \n## Look forrelated words.\n\nLooking at the structure of
