=Welcome to the Providence 7th Grade Advanced English Vocabulary Wiki Pages=

Please follow the instructions below to complete your vocabulary assignment each week:
10 - 15 words will be assigned on the **Assignment Page** each week on Monday (or Tuesday if Monday is a holiday). For each word, you will include the **//definition//**, **//part of speech//**, and **//a sentence//** using the word. You will complete this assignment on a wiki page of your own.
 * Here is an example: the vocabulary word is candor
 * 1) candor (noun): the quality of being frank, open, and sincere in speech or expression
 * 2) The President spoke with candor during his televised speech.

Your completed definitions and sentences will be due on Wednesday (or Thursday if Monday was a holiday). I will comment on your work and post your grade on your wiki page.

Check out the page titled //Bailey's Vocabulary// for an example of what your page should resemble.

There will be a vocabulary test on Friday. The test will be on your knowledge of the vocabulary words rather than on spelling.

Here is how you make a wiki page:

 * 1) Start on this home page. Click **New Page.**
 * 2) Name your page.
 * 3) Copy and paste the wordlist to your page.
 * 4) Complete your assignment. Edit and format as you wish, but within reason. No unreadable fonts or colors.

Questions and Discussion:
You may post questions to me and your classmates or start a discussion on this wiki. Go to the discussion tab to post comments and questions. Remember that all discussion is monitored by myself, other teachers, and your principals. =Important Instructions:=
