Reflecting on Sorting & Comparing

Guided reflection on using precise academic vocabulary

Reflect on how using precise academic words can improve your exam answers.

Think of a time you used vague words like 'good', 'bad', or 'important' in an exam. What was the subject and the question about?*

Identify a moment where your vocabulary felt a bit too everyday.

How could replacing 'important reason' with 'primary factor', or 'bad thing' with 'major drawback', change the way a teacher grades your answer?*

Consider how academic vocabulary demonstrates deeper understanding.

Pick one term from this chapter (e.g., equivalent, claim, particular). Write a practice sentence using it for a future assignment.*

Create a real-world sentence you can actually use in school.
