As our class continues to read, The Tale of Despereaux, we keep stumbling upon words that our class isn't familiar with. Our strategy as a class is to STOP, and write it down. If it appears in our Quote of the Day, we circle it. This way, we can be aware of words we are not certain of and can they search for context clues to help us discover what they mean.
Thanks to my fabulous Technology Guru, we have been googling our new words, and using dictionary.com to find the part of speech and the exact definition as we go.
