Word+of+the+Day

Each week students will have one or more words of the day. On their blogs they will define the word (including phonetic guide and part of speech) and then use it in a sentence that embraces and demonstrates the true meaning of the word. (Please see the Journal calendar for each date/word for specific instructions.)
