Work alone or in pairs to match the 10 words to their definitions.
Create vocabulary circles for the 10 words in your own notebook (these words are generated at random, so if repeats come up, you don't need to make a 2nd Vocabulary Circle--however, by the end of the 2nd week you need to have all 55 Vocabulary Circles).
Remember to keep ALL of your vocabulary circles--all tests/quizzes are cumulative.
Answer the questions in groups of 3 to 4 (talk about getting in to groups)
Reading: Follow along with sound recording. Maintain your dialectical journal. You need 20 entries and we will be reading this book over 9 days (so you need to have two entries each day)
