QW #7 (Remember, we didn't do one yesterday)
Please take out your Vocabulary Lists.
-If you did not write one, now is a good time to copy the list from the person sitting next to you.
-Please choose 3 of your words.
-Write one sentence per word using the Vocabulary word (as you do for your lists each week).
-We will share examples and discuss making sentences with Vocabulary words.
-Be sure the word is actually in the sentence!
2. Vocabulary Activity (Keep your QW #7 out)
I will put you in groups.
Here is what each group needs to do:
1. Assign one person as a "writer": this person needs a piece of paper and a pen/pencil. This person is NOT responsible for anything other than writing (so this person does not need to share a sentence).
2. Each person from your group (except the writer) needs to choose one sentence from his or her quickwrite to share.
3. The writer needs to first write the word and it’s part of speech.
4. Write each sentence chosen and underline the vocabulary word.
5. Then, as a group you need to decide if this sentence works or if it does not.
6. Write below a sentence or more why it works or why it does not. Explain WHY.
