Thinking About Words (Ongoing Assignment Week 2 of 5)

Vocabulary
Find three unfamiliar vocabulary words in your day to day reading.  (Do NOT use our vocabulary book.)  Use context clues to determine the meaning and post that process, along with an original sentence for each word on your blog.


Time Management
Post your Google calendar, with any important schedule items and your study plan.  Also post a To Do list for the day of your top three priority items.

Reflection Post
Address the following prompt with a minimum of 250 words.

What impact has studying the vocabulary required for this class had on you? * Do you notice those words around you now? * Do you approach unfamiliar vocabulary in a different way now? * Do you find yourself using any of the new words you’ve learned? * Are you remembering the words long-term or forgetting them after you test?
