Vocabulary Word

Each week, my kids learn about 1 math and 1 language arts academic vocabulary word.  Last week one of my students asked me (keep in mind these are 3rd grade English language learners) if our reading vocabulary word could be 'concur'.  I was shocked!  I asked him where he learned that word...he said, "my brother".  I just had to ask if he knew what that meant and HE DID!!!!!!  So of course, what was our word the next week?  CONCUR...and he taught it to the class :)
