Teaching Academic Language and Vocabulary Across the Curriculum Teaching Academic Language and Vocabulary Across the Curriculum provides practices for teaching academic language and vocabulary that are useful in many contexts across the curriculum. Students need to be able to understand the teacher’s explanations, discuss what is being learned, read for different purposes, and write about their learning. We call this type of language academic language, the language that is used by teachers and students for the purpose of acquiring new learning and skills. Vocabulary knowledge is directly related to content knowledge. Vocabulary teaching should concentrate on the words that provide students with a vocabulary that spans the curriculum and is critical for acquiring content knowledge.

You can only say you have “learned” a word when you: know what it means know how to say it know how to spell it know when and when not to use it know the grammar of the word (e.g. which word must follow it) Because you need to know so many things about a word, you should organize your vocabulary notebook in such a way that will help you remember new words. Your vocabulary notebook should be a loose-leaf binder, divided into different sections for different vocabulary types. Here are some examples of useful sections for your vocabulary notebook.
