Building a good vocabulary
Each week, I will put on the new words we have learned the meaning to in our lessons. Give each other little vocabulary quizzes! For example,
Which word means 1000g?
Which word means squashed and cramped together?
You do not need to write these down. Instead, use this to really consolidate and grow the bank of words that you understand the meaning of.
