This closes the K–12 EarthFlow Education Arc — but also sets the doorway into ๐ 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.
๐ฑ EarthFlow SAT Vocabulary Master Plan
๐ฏ 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.
๐ 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 ๐)
-
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
๐ How It Flows
-
Early Grades (K–2): Words are taught as roots + pictures + symbols (like ๐ “solar,” ๐ “lunar,” ⚖️ “equal”). These stick.
-
Middle Grades (3–6): Rapid acceleration, adding clusters of academic categories: science, geography, math, civics. Words are tied to experiments, projects, maps.
-
Grades 7–8: They now handle abstractions (analyze, evidence, infer, hypothesis, revolution, economy). Vocabulary doubles fast.
-
Grades 9–11: Every content subject pumps in SAT words. Algebra = “variable, coefficient, quadratic.” Biology = “genome, organism.” Civics = “legislation, sovereignty.” Literature = “metaphor, irony.”
-
Grade 12: No new words. Only review + synthesis: they debate, write, research, and play with the 5,000 in context.
๐ 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.
๐ฅ 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.
