The math vocabulary lists are based on the Common Core Middle School Math Standards. VocabularySpellingCity has selected the middle school math words that apply to the key math concepts and written level-appropriate middle school math definitions combined with meaningful example sentences. Middle school students can use these materials for reinforcement to build understanding or assessment. Teachers can import the lists into their account and then edit or extend the lists for their own purposes.

To help students overcome any language barriers, VocabularySpellingCity has developed comprehensive word lists with printable flashcards and worksheets. Playing online games and activities with vocabulary words placed in contextual sentences increases studentsâ€™ contact with unfamiliar words and builds their mathematical vocabulary. Based on the Common Core State Standards, the statistics and probability word lists help both math teachers and middle school students trend toward increased interest and better odds of success in math.
