<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">Vocabulary Routine--
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">You'll get a new 5 word list every 2 days. So you will be defining and discussing 10 new words per week. You won't be creating your own definitions list; we will define and discuss the words as a class. (If you would like to create a simple list in MS Word, you may do so. But it is not required.)
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">You may define the words with a short answer, you may give an example or you may give a synonym. What you MAY NOT do is read the definition aloud from a website.
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">Every two weeks you will be given a written list of words that we have discussed and used in class.
 * <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">You will be expected to create a study sheet from this list. You will then have a vocabulary test during the first part of the 3rd week. So right now we will be having a voculary test not next week, but the week after on either Monday or Tuesday.
