part of an exam.

the essay so they can receive extra help.

Students have 3 days to stay after to
complete the re-write.

3. Applied
Vocabulary Words
-
Students can earn points by bringing in
newspaper or magazine articles, song lyrics,
books, poems, or any other publication that
has a past or present vocabulary word in it.
- The
amount of points awarded will vary.
|
4. Word of
the Week
-
Students can earn points by using the Word
of the Week in a homework assignment, essay,
or current event.
- The
word must be boxed.
-
Students can use multiple Words of the Week
in one assignment and reuse them as
necessary.

give other assignments throughout the year
but it will always be up to the student to
take advantage of such opportunities.
