word wall

Classroom term poster

A word wall is a classroom display where vocabulary words are posted, usually organized alphabetically or by theme.

Teachers add words throughout the year as students encounter them, creating a visual reference for spelling and vocabulary: Check the word wall if you're not sure how to spell it.

The practice is common in elementary education.
