Math Terms
When teaching math do you label numbers in your dialog with students? Is it 7 or is it really 7 tens? What is the unit? Get that math vocabulary out there for students.
Math Word Wall
http://www.graniteschools.org/depart/teachinglearning/curriculuminstruction/math/Pages/MathematicsVocabulary.aspx This website has math terms with definitions and illustrations. CAUTION!! There are too many pages to print everything in color. I would suggest that you either print it in gray scale on colored paper, or use PTO money to have it printed at an office store.
