Vocabulary

We are implementing the EL/LearnZillion curriculum this year across CMS. This curriculum has vocabulary built into the daily lessons.

Our approach to ELA vocabulary study is as follows:

  • Vocabulary words (and associated Greek and Latin affixes and roots) are provided to the students each week in Canvas.
  • Students will work with those words throughout the week during class.
  • Students will take a weekly quiz on those words.
  • Occasionally, students will be given cumulative tests on vocabulary to ensure they are working with these words on a regular basis.

The links below bring students to Quizlet.com where students can practice their academic and domain-specific vocabulary terms.
