English 6th
Grade A-L
Vocabulary Cards and Word Walls Revised: 1/13/14
Important Notes for Teachers:
The vocabulary cards in this file match the Common Core, the math
curriculum adopted by the Utah State Board of Education, August 2010.
The cards are arranged alphabetically.
Each card has three sections.
o Section 1 is only the word. This is to be used as a visual aid in
spelling and pronunciation. It is also used when students are writing
their own “kid-friendly” definition and drawing their own graphic.
o Section 2 has the word and a graphic. This graphic is available to be
used as a model by the teacher.
o Section 3 has the word, a graphic, and a definition. This is to be used
for the Word Wall in the classroom. For more information on using a
Word Wall for Daily Review – see “Vocabulary – Word Wall Ideas”
on this website.
These cards are designed to help all students with math content vocabulary,
including ELL, Gifted and Talented, Special Education, and Regular
Education students.
For possible additions or corrections to the vocabulary cards, please contact the
Granite School District Math Department at 385-646-4239.
