I'd completely forgotten about this but about three years ago, the English
teachers at our mid. school went to all the elective and other subject
teachers for a list of words in their respective fields. Now all the 6th and
7th grade kids learn to spell and define about 50 art words among other
words in their English classes during the year. Toodles.......
