Vocabulary Word List

| | | | | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | | | | | | This year in seventh grade, students will be assigned five words per week to enter in their vocabulary journal. Besides the fact that vocabulary development will help your child enjoy the sweet taste of success in his/her core classes, having a rich vocabulary will help your child express thoughts intelligently later in life.
Every Monday morning your child will be asked to copy down the assignments for the week in an agenda. The words for the week will be included in the agenda. Almost every week there will be a vocabulary quiz over each week’s new words. Students will be held responsible for former words, also. Ask to see your child’s agenda for a list of each week’s words and to find out if there is a quiz.
Please remind your child to keep this vocabulary booklet in a safe place so it can be used as a study guide throughout the year. Regularly reviewing this list with your child would be a great way to help him/her be more successful in language arts. If your child needs another booklet, please feel free to email us for another copy.
