Use context clues to determine the definition of the bolded word. Then check yourself with a dictionary. You can use the dictionary on your phone if you prefer. Last, create a sentence of your own using the original word. Write on your own paper.
Choose an article from the Holocaust newspaper. Read the article and become an expert on the information in the article. Think of a way to teach the information to the class. You can create bullets, write a poem, draw pictures, and etc... The choice is up to you. Be creative. You will teach the article on Friday.
As one reads, images are created in the mind. Think of an image that you had as a reader while reading chapter one. Convey that image on a piece of white paper.
