Preface What is the Vocabulary List? The following quotation comes from Jim Burke’s home page.

“A thorough survey of various textbooks, assignments, content area standards, and examinations yields the following list of words.

You cannot expect to succeed on assignments if you do not understand the directions. The words fall into several categories, which are not identified on this sheet: nouns (e.g., What you read or create); verbs (e.g., What the assignment asks you to do); adjectives (e.g., specific details about what you must do); and adverbs, which provide very important information about how to do the assignment.”

The Academic Vocabulary List can be obtained from: www.englishcompanion.com Upon arriving at Mr. Burke’s home page, scroll down and click on: NEW: Academic Vocabulary 2.0 (Expanded) I have taken Jim’s Academic Vocabulary List (pages 3-4) and categorized the words into parts of speech (pages 5-34). In some cases, I’ve expanded the root to show word usage in different forms.

The purpose of compiling this list is to make it so the teacher will be able to take all the words in the Academic Vocabulary List and put them in a format that will make it easier to integrate them into a usable vocabulary program, or just to use in daily lessons.

This format puts all the words’ parts of speech at your fingertips.

I hope this helps you as you help students! Good luck!

Academic Vocabulary

A thorough survey of various textbooks, assignments, content area standards, and examinations yields the following list of words. You cannot expect to succeed on assignments if you do not understand the directions. The words fall into several categories, which are not identified on this sheet: nouns (e.g., What you read or create); verbs (e.g., What the assignment asks you to do); adjectives (e.g., specific details about what you must do); and adverbs, which provide very important information about how to do the assignment.

SUFFIXES

[Forming Parts of Speech]

When you are reading, you will come across unfamiliar words. It is often possible to guess their meanings if you understand the way words in English are generally formed. An English word can be divided into three parts: a prefix, a [root / base word], and a SUFFIX. Pre- means 'before. A prefix, therefore, is what comes before the [root / base word].

A SUFFIX is attached to the end of the [root / base word]. Many times, a word can be defined when it is known what the prefix and the SUFFIX mean. Prefixes usually change the meaning of the word. However, a SUFFIX can change the meaning of the word; it can also form the part of speech. Below are groups of SUFFIXES (Multiple SUFFIXES) that are all used in the Academic Vocabulary List. They are listed under the parts of speech they form. The bolded SUFFIXES are usually seen more often.
