In other words, “homogenized” is also “homogenize” in the present tense. “Relegation” can be “relegate” or “relegated.” “Enforcement” can be “enforce.” Look the words up and make sure you know what they mean. If you already have ten words from yesterday’s assignment, you do not have to look up ten new words. Use the ones from your work on Thursday.

2. Write a short story one page long in which you use your ten chosen words correctly. The story must MAKE SENSE, and hang together as a story. It can be about anything, as long as it is appropriate for school. Have fun! ☺

ESSENTIAL NOTE: The story must be one 8.5 x 11 lined page, single-spaced and with normally sized handwriting. Hand the stories in to the teacher when they are completed.
