Vocabulary Database

Instead of making a bunch of loose flashcards, students will create a database folder that keeps all technical and literary vocabulary cards neat, organized and ready to use. The requirements use a complex differentiated matrix to scaffold for those who need it and challenge those in opposite end of the spectrum.
