No worries...just words

Hello my fearless sharers of information.  I realized long ago that I was destined to leave information for others to read and then wait patiently for their response.  I guess that was when I was in the fifth grade and I asked Angela Wilson if she wanted to be my friend.  Then I left two check boxes: one for "no" and one for "yes".  But I digress.  Here are this weeks super links:
The Lord of the Flies which is a great read for those of you unable to purchase the novel.  Be certain to use the vocabulary list while reading and identify words that you want to add.  Additionally, to my Darker Face of the Earth readers,  this information should provide great insight while completing your "About the Author" project.  Happy reading and remember to respond to these three questions as you read:
 


1. How can I use context clues to understand new words?
 
2. How can parts of words help me determine the meaning of an unknown word?

3.Why is it important to learn new vocabulary words?


Enjoy your week!
