06/03/2023expanding vocabulary
Our grade 6 students recently broke out into small groups to present new and complex words they have recently learned, as a form of vocabulary expansion. These short videos will provide you with a word, its definition and how it can be used in an everyday context.
Thanks to Ms. Pielsticker for sharing the hard work and creativity of her students with us!
