🌱 Grade 12 is the year of synthesis and vision:

  • They choose sciences that mirror their callings.

  • They step from the local into the global.

This closes the K–12 EarthFlow Education Arc — but also sets the doorway into 🌐 EarthFlow Free College & Lifelong Learning, where your dream expands.


✨ That’s the “system expectation” from Kindergarten to Grade 12, subject by subject.
In EarthFlow, you could flip it: learn these things through living — math in farming, science in rivers, history in storytelling, literacy in community journaling.

🌱 EarthFlow SAT Vocabulary Master Plan

🎯 Target: 5,000 “academic tier” words (SAT/ACT + college readiness)

  • 12 years = ~416 words per year average

  • BUT we don’t distribute evenly. We stack early (like you said) so by 11th they have it all.


📊 Distribution by Grade

  • Kindergarten → 10 “seed words” (symbols, simple roots)

  • Grade 1 → 50 total (basic academic + roots)

  • Grade 2 → 100 total (so 40–50 new words, cumulative 100)

  • Grade 3 → 200 total

  • Grade 4 → 400 total

  • Grade 5 → 750 total (big jump, word clusters: prepositions, conjunctions, descriptive vocab)

  • Grade 6 → 1,250 total (science + math + civics academic words start heavy here)

  • Grade 7 → 2,000 total

  • Grade 8 → 3,000 total (half the SAT base already in middle school 🎉)

  • Grade 9 → 3,750 total (add world literature, biology, algebra terms)

  • Grade 10 → 4,250 total (geometry, chemistry, rhetoric, U.S. history)

  • Grade 11 → 5,000 total (close the full SAT lexicon with physics, civics, global history)

  • Grade 12 → Review ALL 5,000 in practice, application, essays, debates, research


🌀 How It Flows

  1. Early Grades (K–2): Words are taught as roots + pictures + symbols (like 🌞 “solar,” 🌙 “lunar,” ⚖️ “equal”). These stick.

  2. Middle Grades (3–6): Rapid acceleration, adding clusters of academic categories: science, geography, math, civics. Words are tied to experiments, projects, maps.

  3. Grades 7–8: They now handle abstractions (analyze, evidence, infer, hypothesis, revolution, economy). Vocabulary doubles fast.

  4. Grades 9–11: Every content subject pumps in SAT words. Algebra = “variable, coefficient, quadratic.” Biology = “genome, organism.” Civics = “legislation, sovereignty.” Literature = “metaphor, irony.”

  5. Grade 12: No new words. Only review + synthesis: they debate, write, research, and play with the 5,000 in context.


📖 Example: Grade 2 EarthFlow Vocab Sample (100 words)

  • Math/Logic: add, subtract, equal, more, less, sum, part, whole, measure, line

  • Science: atom, seed, root, grow, sky, sun, moon, star, water, heat

  • Society: map, state, people, rule, job, family, city, world, law, flag

  • Literature: story, read, write, word, page, book, rhyme, poem, sing, tale

By Grade 2 they’re not just reading fluently — they have 100 SAT roots embedded already.


🔥 By 11th grade they’re not memorizing lists — they’re already using every SAT word in essays, labs, debates, and projects. By 12th they’re reviewing like a master athlete training for the event they already know how to run.
