What is Academic Vocabulary and Why

Does it Matter?Academic vocabulary refers to specialized, high-utility words used in the classroom.

Academic vocabulary includes many academic words (e.g., analyze, summarize, evaluate, formula, respond, specify).

Academic vocabulary also includes the language our students need to competently speak to read and discuss topics, in Science and Social Studies.
