WordGirl
Join NJN in kicking off
the summer
with WordGirl
and her trusty
sidekick Captain
Huggy Face with a
two-hour marathon at
4 pm Monday, May 26.
Join the everyday adventures of
WordGirl as she fights crime vocabulary
usage, all in a day’s work. Disguised
as mild-mannered 5th grader, Becky
Botsford, WordGirl arrived on planet Earth
when she and her monkey sidekick, Captain Huggy
Face, crashed their spaceship. In classic superhero
form, WordGirl possesses superhero strength
with the added benefit of a colossal vocabulary.
WordGirl has a family and friends who have no idea
of her secret identity.
Each episode introduces four new vocabulary words
and will reinforce their meaning in a variety of contexts throughout the episode.
Only a superhero like WordGirl, endowed with
power punches and dictionary strength, can put
the word-wrenching scoundrels back in their place
proving once again that crime doesn’t pay…but
knowing the right word for the right moment is
priceless.
