This link is similar to the Math E.O.G. Vocabulaty link. Students need to be
able to explain the word, not necessarily spell it. The vocabulary will be
used not only this year, but it has been used since first grade. The E.O.G.
is a cummulative assessment of the student's educational experience thus far.
Students should review this list regularly and report any vocabulary they are
unfamiliar with to Mrs. Smith.
Good Luck!
