Designed for junior high school teachers and students, this competency-based vocabulary guide offers 16 units of study on survival vocabulary. Included in the guide are a student section and a teacher key. Each unit in the student section contains a word list and four or more exercises which include definitions, word classification, word search, and compare-contrast. The teacher key gives the answers to the exercises contained in the student section. Both the student section and the teacher key contain the same survival vocabulary glossary. The Webster's Intermediate Dictionary, 1977 edition, is noted as the primary resource in compiling the glossary. (EM)
