Are you frustrated with your vocabulary tools that ask students to memorize complex language-definitions that they don’t always understand? InferCabulary Pro has students actively infer the meaning of words based on seeing multiple images illustrating the word used in different contexts. InferCabulary Pro (ICPro) is more than just a vocabulary app, it’s a great tool that helps students use critical thinking to learn the nuanced meanings of words broadly and deeply with over 1800 words (and growing) in our system. Teachers, speech language pathologists and tutors can hand-select words based on grade level, literature or their own vocabulary lists. Our words are cross-referenced with over 100 popular and classic literature titles. You can see a student’s progress and the words they learned, as well as the words they struggle with in the program.
