Truer Words

Emily O’Connor of Advantage Math Clinic has hand-selected 10 words for study.  Each card in this deck explores a single, complete lexical item — a single written English word — as both a big-picture tapestry of a word family, and through the Four Questions of Structured Word Inquiry.

They are beautiful and useful for personal study, teaching, investigation, and just plain marveling at.

Etymology Study Sheets

Scott Mills of LIV(E), my co-author on the 2nd volume of Matrix Study Sheets, offers this superb resource for individuals, classrooms, and clinics that allows for engagement with Etymology without an online connection. This book, created in conjunction with LEX and the Online Etymology Dictionary, is a collection of timelines and entries from the Etymology Dictionary. Entries feature broad etymological word families, and where applicable, a cross-reference with LEX’s Matrix Study Sheets.

Both items, along with the 2nd Volume of Matrix Study Sheets, are available in Portland this weekend at our Etymology Weekend Book Reception, and online in the LEX store for a limited time.

Order yours today.
