the three tiers of vocab - make a triangle
Tier One
Everyday words that students generally come to school with or words they learn in the early years#.
Tier Two
Words that are more academic but not specific to any one discipline. Words like analyse or evaluate would qualify as a Tier Two words. Tier Two words tend to receive less attention because they do not belong to any one discipline.
Tier Three
Words that are content specific words, such as ‘hypotenuse’, that Marzano (2004) would call academic vocabulary. Tier three words are typically used only in the school or University setting, hence why they are referred to as academic vocabulary.
