FREE ACADEMIC WORDS

Turn Academic Vocabulary into an Interactive Learning Experience!

Move beyond traditional vocabulary flashcards with Academic Words, a 15-word academic vocabulary resource designed to help students understand, remember, and actually use essential academic words.

These aren’t just flashcards.

Every flashcard includes its own QR code that connects directly to a word-specific video lesson.

Students can scan → watch → practise → apply each word, creating a learning experience that extends beyond the printed page.

Each video lesson reinforces the word through explanation, examples, and a quick quiz, giving students an additional way to hear the word, understand its meaning, see it used in context, and practise using it themselves.
