Vocabulary
All 7th and 8th grade students will use the Vocabulary Workshop book in English class to increase and improve both vocabulary and spelling skills. It is also a useful tool for students to prepare for standardized testing and the HSPT. Homework will be assigned daily and tests will be administered approximately every two weeks . There will be a review test after every three units. As an additional resource, students can access online practice and review, including games and puzzles, at www.vocabularyworkshop.com.
