Diphthong - ANSWER a pair of letters that smoothly and subtly change from one
sound to another when pronounced
Echo Reading - ANSWER a skilled reader reads a short sentence or phrase of text
while students echo back the same sentence or phrase as they follow along; it is
used to help students develop expressive, fluent reading and text comprehension
Word Consciousness - ANSWER awareness of and interest in words; developing it
helps lead to an appreciation of authors' language as well as the skillful use of words
in their own speech and writing
Close Reading - ANSWER means looking deeply into a text to uncover its layers of
meaning - the ideas beyond who, what, where, how, and why; it involves reference,
analysis, and evaluation; it is primarily undertaken on the second reading of a text
and may involve reading beyond that
Structural Analysis - ANSWER refers to the process of using knowledge of
individual word parts to determine the meaning of an unknown word
Expressions such as "um, uh, well, and so" - ANSWER are prevalent in everyday
conversation, but audience members find them distracting in formal presentations;
effective presenters make an effort to eliminate these expressions from their speech
pattern so that audience members can focus on understanding the information in a
presentation
Standard Deviation - ANSWER describes the extent to which a collection of data
points vary from their average value
y = a (x - h)2 + k - ANSWER (h, k) represents the vertex of a parabola, the sign of
"a" controls in which direction the parabola opens (negative is down)
Ordinal Numbers - ANSWER are used to represent the position of a term in a
sequence
Cardinal Numbers - ANSWER are used to represent a quantity
Counting All - ANSWER used when a person counts every number to find the sum
Counting On - ANSWER used when a person begins at the value of one addend
and counts up the number of units equal to the second addend (ex- begin at 8 and
count on adding 4....8,9,10,11,12)
Skip Counting - ANSWER the method of counting forward by numbers other than 1
, Composing Ten - ANSWER a common and traditional way to develop number
sense. It is used by many educators as a means to reinforce the knowledge that
numbers are made up of ones, and when grouped together, can make up ten.
Multiplicative Identity Property of 1 - ANSWER any number multiplied by 1, gives
the same result as the number itself
Associative Property of Multiplication - ANSWER the way in which factors are
grouped in a multiplication problem does not change the product
Closure Property of Multiplication - ANSWER The product of any two real numbers
will result in a real number
Multiplicative Property of Reciprocals (Inverse Property of Multiplication) - ANSWER
any number multiplied by its reciprocal is equal to one
Order of Operations (PEMDAS) - ANSWER sequence in which the multiple
operations in an expression should be solved (Parentheses, Exponents,
Multiply/Divide, Add/Subtract)
When changing units - ANSWER arrange conversion factors so that units to be
canceled are positioned on opposite sides of ratios in related factors (ex- 48 in x [1
ft/12 in] )
Mean - ANSWER the average of the numbers; add up all the numbers, then divide
by how many numbers there are
Median - ANSWER the "middle" of a sorted list of numbers; place the numbers in
value order and find the middle number
Mode - ANSWER the number that appears most frequently in a data set; a set of
numbers may have one mode, more than one mode, or no mode at all.
Range - ANSWER the difference between the lowest and highest values
Box Plot (illustrates) - ANSWER minimum value; lower, middle, and upper quartiles;
and maximum value of a data collection
Scalene Triangle - ANSWER a triangle that has three unequal sides
Acute Triangle - ANSWER a triangle in which all three angles are acute angles
Equilateral Triangle - ANSWER a triangle with all three sides of equal length
Isosceles Triangle - ANSWER a triangle with (at least) two equal sides
Obtuse Triangle - ANSWER a triangle in which one of the angles is an obtuse angle
Square - ANSWER a plane figure with four equal straight sides and four right
angles; both a rectangle and a rhombus
