At the last meeting, the following was decided by your department:


 * 7-12 words would be introduced weekly
 * you will investigate the CCSS for the vocabulary words
 * you will also use the HSCE and GLCE for finding words
 * it is also suggested by your Vocabulary facilitators that you utilize the Curriculum Crafter and Marzanos' lists for locating words
