Vocabulary Practice
Friday, September 18, 2009
Hi guys,
One of the ways of improving your vocabulary is to actively increase your 'word bank' by finding out the meaning of new words and making a sentence using those words.
I know that some of you already have excellent vocabulary, so, to help your classmates make those much needed deposits into their 'bank account', please post a new word each week. Include the dictionary meaning(s) of the word and a sentence that contains that word.
The rest of you should try to make up sentences using the posted words. Post your own sentences on the blog so that you have the opportunity to test your sentences. You may also comment on each other's words & sentences.
I will not make this compulsory, but I do hope that you guys will actively partcipate in this activity as it will not only help you in your comprehension skills, it'll also aid you in your free writing.

p.s. I'll start the ball rolling by posting one word today.

I have absolutely no idea (am an IT idiot). Whichever works, I guess.
Should we post the words in the chatbox or in a blog post?
