The following Vocabulary Lists are worth 100 points. This assignment is mandatory. Students can only earn all points by turning the assignment in on time and complete. Additional points are lost for being late and incorrect. However, after the due date, all students are required to attend Lunchtime makeup sessions in my room until the vocabulary assignment is completed. If they fail to report for their makeup session they may receive a pass entry for poor behavior.

Vocabulary Format
For each word the student must do 4 things 1) write down the vocabulary word with the correct spelling, 2) define the word from the glossary of Discovery Education, 3) draw a picture illustrating what it looks like or what it can do - this will help you understand the meaning better, 4) write a sentence using the word correctly
