Building Language

Building Language is a classical-style vocabulary program from Royal Fireworks Press that teaches Latin stems through engaging short stories. Instead of isolated word lists, students encounter roots and derivatives in context, gradually learning how Latin elements combine to form many English words. Parents appreciate that the narrative approach feels more like reading than rote memorization, while still building a strong foundation for advanced vocabulary, spelling, and future language study. As a slim, reusable book, Building Language delivers a surprising amount of word-awareness training for a modest cost, especially when used alongside other Michael Clay Thompson language arts materials.
