In the style of an illuminated manuscript, we will be creating our class dictionary.
Here are some examples from the book we are reading The Mighty.
Aargh, what the aardvark says when it eats ants
Big Lie, ignorance is bliss
Obfuscate, a needlessly confusing word for needlessly confusing
Zoo, an eighth-grade English class
Here is an actual dictionary entry
For your dictionary entry
-Do 2 Words
-Is the word a noun, a verb, both, or . . . ? (1pt)
-Define the word (could be several definitions) (2pts)
-Use the word in an example sentence (2pts)
-CORRECT spelling and grammar, this is a dictionary after all (2pts)
-Artistry (3pts)
