English 12 Academic Vocabulary List
Interested in Extra Credit? Print any term pages with
an image then POST it somewhere in the classroom. The image MUST relate to
the term - it must be immediately obvious at a glance, not something that needs
any explanation. Do not print all four - print only the single page - ASK IF
YOU NEED HELP because wasted paper will negate the extra credit. NO REPEATS -
check first to see if your term already is posted!
