Students: The following is the list of vocabulary for our Unit 8.6 that will be continuously updated. This means that you will need to check this list every couple of days for updated new terms that will be added, as we learn them in class through our study of the second unit, Unit 8.6.

Avoid waiting for the last few days to begin your work on the terms below. Therefore, the classroom teacher suggests that you get cracking now. This means today, Thursday, January 09, 2020.

Remember that each Frayer model must include the definition of the term, its characteristics, an example, and a non-example. Note that if an example is not available to you, a picture can be sketched to represent the concept that you are working on.
