You may create your own answers; they need to be accurate and complete, though.
Spelling counts. I grade your spelling of vocab words… but not usually other words on the quiz.
You may provide definitions for synonyms. You may not provide synonyms for definitions.
You need accurate and complete answers to get credit for definitions. There’s no partial credit for incomplete answers.
Word your answers so they suggest the correct part of speech. (Ex: a verb’s definition should suggest action).
Do NOT add –ed, -ing, or –s / -es to create an OFW (unless the OFW appears that way on your flash card).
You only need one answer for each question. Extra answers increase your chance of losing credit.
If I provide you with a vocabulary word that has more than one meaning or spelling, please provide the meaning or
spelling from your flash card for your answers. (Exs: Meanings: bat vs. bat. Spellings: write vs. right.)
You don’t need to add the part of speech for OFW’s or any info from the parentheses on your flash cards.
Underline the vocabulary word in your context sentence.
Write neatly; if I can’t read your handwriting, I might not give you credit for your answers.
If you want, you may use an OFW in your context sentence.
Answers need the same meaning we studied in class; for your context sentence, you need correct usage and a clear
context clue (not a S or D).
