Published on Dec 11, 2015

English III team,

I am looking to continue with vocabulary for my classes during the next two weeks, just to stick with the routine. Feel free to use the following words/slides if you like. FYI, the words came from a list of frequently used SAT words.

I will plan on developing a quiz for this unit as well.

Thanks! Alex
