Class Work
1. Taking a look at your information for the definition paper. Get with others who share your word to define. If you selected a unique word, get with the others who have stand-alone words.
2. Share your information with the group. In addition, "interview" at least two members of the group and get their definition of your term. Be sure to get the correct spelling of their names and note today's date. If you use something they said in your "interview," you must give credit and include the name or names on your Works Cited page.
