1516 Words of the Week 4 Aug 22 “3xD” means (1) you write the word 3 times on a line. (2) On the next line you write you write the definition and then on the next line use the word properly used in a sentence with correct punctuation and the word underlined. Definitions are NOT to be copied and pasted from the Internet. Definitions are to be researched and are to be in YOUR words. The sentence must be such that I can see you know the definition and how to use the word correctly. A poorly done 3xD will result in 10 points being deducted from your spelling test. A 3xD that is not done will result in 20 points being deducted from your spelling test and they are expected the following day. If “B&D” are beside a proper noun, it refers to “birth and death dates.” Write the name 3 times and the birth and death dates. No sentences are required.

If “St, L & L” are beside location (say a battlefield), it means write the word 3 times and then the STate and the Latitude (format: N 35º- 15’- 14”) and Longitude (format: W 18°- 43’- 18”) of the location. If there is no state (L&L), just give the latitude and longitude. No sentences are required.

No words due to Map Project being due. “Man, Mr. Morris a nice guy!”
