 * Novel Unit Vocabulary Assignments Week One: Think about the interesting words and vocabulary words in your novel. As you read, find 3 words that you want to look up. These words need to be words that you do not know the meaning of, or a word that you want to know more about. You might find that you know the meaning of every word, so you might find a word that you think made the sentence very interesting, or might find a word that you do not hear often.
 * First, find the 3 words and write the sentence from the book with the word in it & include page number.
 * Next, look up the meaning of those words in the dictionary.
 * Write the words, sentences (page #), and definitions on your wiki student folder page.
 * Answer Discussion Question # 1
 * "Based on what you read so far, how do you think the story is going to end?"
 * Must use complete sentences and be at least a paragraph, use details from novel to support your answer.
 * Put answer in wiki student folder
