First Vivid Vocab/ Homework Assign. Due 10/21/11

Name______________________

“I Pledge Allegiance”
Vivid Vocabulary Requirements

• Your first vivid vocabulary word is _________________________________________________.
• You are to do the following by Friday, October 21st, 2011:
o Write the word large at the top of the paper in block or bubble letters (at
least 2 inches). Color the word so it stands out.
o Use a dictionary to write the definition under the word (if you can’t find
the word in the dictionary, you can use the internet).
o On the bottom, write a sentence using your vocabulary word.
o Draw a picture showing a scene of what the word means and how you used the
work in your sentence (3-D pictures will get you more points-use scrap
booking supplies, cotton balls, popsicle sticks, construction paper,
Cheerios, etc to make it stand out).
o Practice saying your word, definition and sentence because you will need to
make an oral presentation to the class on the day that it is due.

***It is important to be neat, careful and try to be creative as you work on this project. It is always a good idea to discuss this with your family and you can get some help from them on this one. I encourage family participation for this project. The main idea is to build your vocabulary so you will learn new and interesting words.

**In order to get credit, your word MUST be themed towards what we’ve studied during Shared Reading on the Pledge of Allegiance.
