Vocabulary: essential for an outstanding reader, writer, and thinker. This list shows what my class had to learn during our first quarter of our junior year. As an AP English Language class, we had to start with the fundamentals: knowing our vocabulary. It has truly developed to where we are able to read fluently, think critically, and write complexly. Vocabulary has helped us come to understand rhetorical devices—something we use daily as AP English Language students. Vocabulary has helped us come to understand words that will possibly be on the AP English test—something we all hope and want to pass. And finally, vocabulary has helped us come to understand better writing techniques—something we will use for years to come. Vocabulary is necessary. It is essential.
Standards Covered:
- Reading: Vocabulary, Word Study, Fluency: Acquire and apply skills in vocabulary development and word analysis to be able to read fluently
