Developing Academic Vocabulary: Got Words? (webpage) |
-
Academic Vocabulary refers to words associated with content knowledge. Within every discipline, there is a specific set of words to represent its concepts and processes.
-
Content-Specific Vocabulary refers to vocabulary that includes technical words related to specific academic disciplines.
- Grade-Level Vocabulary refers to words that are appropriate for that specific grade level.

Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
