About

The word knowledge students bring to school varies widely. Students' socioeconomic backgrounds and the amount of language they use at home can significantly affect how their vocabularies expand. Increasing students' vocabulary is vital to their reading and learning success, and promoting the use of academic language in speech and writing will also encourage further understanding.
