This deck is designed to help students improve their vocabulary and reading comprehension skills. Each card features a sentence from The War with Grandpa by Robert Kimmel Smith with a word in bold.

This deck is aligned with the following Common Core State Standards for 4th-5th graders: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.4.4: Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including those that allude to significant characters found in mythology (e.g., Herculean).
