Academic Vocbulary



Academic Vocabulary is a list of words or phrases that a student should learn throughout the school year. Each year a students academic vocabulary grows and builds on itself. Often students and parents don't even realize that the new word they are using for a skill is an Academic Vocabulary word. We will use these words in our class throughout the year, and every word will be covered in class. Students will also add many of these words to their Personal Dictionaries at their seat.
