In regards to math, there are so many terms that students need to know and it is imperative to go over terms being discussed throughout the lesson. It helps students to understand what it is you are talking about as well as the concepts that they will be going over. The teacher should be sure to teach the vocabulary beforehand as well as go over it after the lesson is over or include it in their homework to assure that they have full understanding of the term.
