    Introduction One of the identified critical instructional components for helping students learn to read is vocabulary. Since the National Reading Panel (2000) and the National Early Literacy Panel (2009) reported that strong early oral vocabulary knowledge is a predictor for later successful reading outcomes, an increased research and teaching focus in this area has arisen.

The players performed ten spike trials to various spots on the court. For these trials, were then analyzed and Mitchinson concluded that

    stated in Haan et al. (2011), “the AMCL is divided in two functional components and is taut throughout the full range of flexion and extension because the components are alternatively tightening throughout this range of motion. The posterior part of the AMCL is taut from eighty degrees flexion to full flexion; in contrast, the anterior part of the AMCL is taut in extension.” The AMCL is a stronger ligament than the PMCL, acting as the primary medial ligamentous joint stabilizer. The function of the
