As many as THREE students from grades 5 and 6 separately and grades 7/8 combined, may be entered in the VOCABULARY District Contest from each school. Two students from grades 5 and 6 each and two students from combined grades 7 and 8 advance to State.  \n• ADVANCING TO STATE. First and second place winners from each of the three contests (5, 6, & 7/8 combined) will advance to State. The third place winners will be alternates. See page 8 for complete rules. See page 109 for an abbreviated chart for contest administration.  \n• NATURE OF THE CONTEST. The Vocabulary Contest is similar to a SAT preparation course. Test items are very similar in construction and content to those that might be found on a SAT verbal test. The vocabulary list for the current year consists of 300 words, and is found on the following pages of the Academic Handbook. Although each test item will be composed using at least one of these words, a well-read student who has a broad, cumulative vocabulary will perform best in this contest, for many of the words used within the tests are not used in everyday middle school language. The contest contains 30 items—approximately 13 sentence completion, 13 analogies, and 9 questions over a reading passage that is from 400 to 700 words in length. Test time is 30 minutes.  \n• WHAT HAPPENS IN THE CONTEST. The contest director will announce the time and place that contestants and one adult should report for verification of the scoring of tests. (Substitutes taking the place of absent registered contestants should be sure to let the contest director know as they enter the room to save time at roll call.) Answer sheets will be distributed to contestants first, followed by contestant ID-labeled tests distributed by student name. Contestants will be instructed to write their  \ngrade levels and their contestant ID numbers in the spaces provided on the answer sheet. Contestants must not open the test until the start signal is given.  \nNo alarm watches or other devices that emit sound are allowed in the contest room. Disqualification will result if such device makes any sound while  \nplaced in any portion of the room.  \n• TIME ALLOTTED. Contestants will have 30 minutes beginning at the start signal. A 5-minutes left time warning may be given, but contestants should be responsible for their own time management. Contestants will remain quietly in their seats until the time has expired.  \n• MARKING ANSWERS. Contestants will use a dark inkpen or pencil to print CAPITAL letter answers in the blanks provided on the test. Any marking in the answer space will constitute an attempt.  \n• SCORING. Add 5 points for each correct answer. Subtract 2 points for each incorrect answer, or for each answer that was attempted, marked through or erased, and did not result in a correct answer. No points are added or deducted for skipped or unanswered test items.• Mark-outs are acceptable, as long as a correct answer is written beside the mark-out. If an answer is marked out and no correct answer is written in the answer space, 2 points deducted. Erasures are permitted. Any erased correct answer that can still be seen is counted correct. An erased answer that is not correct and does not have a correct answer written over or beside it constitutes an incorrect answer, whereby 2 points are deducted.  \n• VERIFICATION PERIOD. See page 14.  \n2024 VOCABULARY 2025  \nADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR COACHES / CONTEST DIRECTORS  \n• PREPARATION FOR CONTEST. Read and follow all instructions provided in the “Rules for ALL Participants” section of thePSIA Academic Handbook. Observe and practice with students all rules and procedures delineated in the “Instructions to the Contestant” and in the “Checklist for Contest Directors” and the“Checklist for Graders.” Preparation for the Vocabulary Contest should include researching definitions in the Merriam Webster Collegiate Dictionary, 11th edition.
