Sponsored by DMPS Gifted Education Department __** ﻿Wordmasters Competition **__ Wordmasters is a vocabulary enrichment activity for third, fourth and fifth graders interested in learning new and challenging words. It is composed of a set of vocabulary words for each grade level ranging from high-average to difficult, all located on this wiki. Students may work on the words at home or they may be used as a classroom extension activity. Students may choose to study the words in any way that is helpful to them. We have provided links to electronic flashcards as well as other resources students may use. It is not necessary for students to complete all of the available activities.

Students may wish to take an in-school written test at the end of the activity which will qualify them for in-school and district honors. The Wordmasters materials will be available beginning the week of September 26th with the final district competition held from November 28-December 2 in the buildings. Certificates and medals will be awarded to the top finishers in each building as well as across the district.
