A great way to learn content vocabulary is by making traditional flashcards on index cards. Cutting a sheet of paper into 6 or 8 squares is a cost effective way to create flashcards too. To make a flashcard, simply write a key vocabulary term on one side of an index card and its definition or a paraphrased description of the term on the reverse side. I highly recommend color-coding each group of flashcards by lessons within chapters or units.
