Daily Academic Vocabulary, Grade 6

What is academic vocabulary?
Academic vocabulary is the language of learning. The high-use, widely applicable words presented in Daily Academic Vocabulary, such as compare, occurrence, structure, sequential, symbolize, and inference, are words your students will encounter time and time again throughout their coursework and assessments.

Daily Academic Vocabulary helps students develop a solid knowledge and understanding of the language used in assessment. However, Daily Academic Vocabulary isn't just for test-prep. It makes mastering larger concepts in all academic contexts and content areas easier, as well.

Each book, grades 2–6+, in the series contains:
Transparencies that display each week's words, definitions, and sample sentences.
Weekly teacher lesson plan pages that include the definitions and sample sentences for each week's words, ideas for how to introduce the words, and scripting suggestions that build on students' previous knowledge and personal connections to the words.
Reproducible student practice pages:
- Days 1–4 of each week present three or four questions that focus on using the words in a scholastic or personal context.
- Day 5 is a review that features four multiple-choice questions as well as an opened-ended writing activity that requires students to apply the words to their own experiences.
Reproducible review weeks that give students additional practice on the words introduced in the prior eight weeks. Practice formats are fun and engaging for students and include cloze paragraphs, crosswords, and crack-the-code puzzles.
