 * UNIT TWO VOCABULARY**


 * Your task that will be due __by Friday 10/07 at 1:30 pm__ will be to as a class create a review guide on the wiki for this vocabulary list. You will do this by each adding 7 entries to the list. __Please include your initials next to each of your contributions to ensure proper credit for your work.__ For each entry, you will choose from the following options :**

(a) define the word completely, including part of speech (b) list at least three synonyms (c) list at least three antonyms (c) use it in an original sentence correctly (d) select a relevant image to accompany the word AND explain the image's relevance to the word (e) list any other forms of the word (where applicable) (example: idealism for idealist; zealotry for zealous)


 * There are 18 words and 6 options for entries per word; this means there are 108 possible entries on this list. As there are 14 of you and you will each complete 7 entries -- we should have at least 98 entries when we are done. Your goal is not only to complete your 7 individual entries but also to - as a class - create a complete list that is readable, polished, and accurate. Work together to accomplish this in an efficient and effective manner.**


 * __YOUR QUIZ on these words will be Thursday, 10/13.__ The more thorough you are in your work above - the more prepared you will be for the quiz. I expect you will be familiar with all of the above for your quiz next week. You will be assessed for this second vocabulary list as follows :**
