A New Beginning

In an effort to encourage my students to learn new words and share them with their peers, I started another facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_183937388301657&ap=1sk=group_183937388301657&ap=1sk=group_183937388301657&ap=1 and added my current students into the group. The first post was on the word "gravy", which Zudien posted.

To get the ball rolling further, I also posted a word, defined it and gave an example of the sentence construction.

This post by Aaron generated encouraging responses from his peers.

Some more new words are shared here.

More encouragement needed.
