Freshman English--SAT "D" Words

Due Friday, March 7

Copy the SAT Words.  Then look up the definitions and parts of speech.  Write both in your notebook.  (You must handwrite this assignment; not type, or cut and paste). For each of the words, find an excellent context sentence by googling the Internet (always cite your source within parentheses after the sentence--the name of the website). In addition, create an excellent context sentence of your own.  Please clearly label the "googled" sentence and your "own" sentence.  All of this work should be written on loose-leaf paper in your binder, so that it can be turned in for a grade. Highlight the words in your sentences.
