"Once my students tried VOCABBUSTERS they were more engaged, talking about the words and cartoons even when they were working with other activities. The posttest was the definitive decision for me; nearly all earned A's, and their retention/application rate is MUCH higher with these words.”
Ginger Lewman, Enrichment Services Teacher, Emporia Middle School, Emporia Kansas

"This is the first vocabbulary program I have found to catch my students interest using humor and educationally sound methods for decoding words. The cartoons are a fascinating way to make words come alive. We love the VOCABBUSTERS program and recommend it highly!”
Patsy Mura, Gifted Services, Blue Valley School District, Overland Park, Kansas
