Things I learn in Second Grade: Acrostic and Array

I would like to remind you that I know of these things, however did not know it had a name.


According to Wikipedia, "An acrostic is a poem or other form of writing in which the first letter, syllable or word of each line, paragraph or other recurring feature in the text spells out a word or a message."

Here is a sample of an Acrostic Poem:

Siesta Key
Ukulele
Nirvana
No worries
Yes 

An Array is a math term used to define a set of columns/rows.

Where was I in school?  How did I not learn the terminology for all of this?
