First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope everyone is having a terrific 2009 so far.
Here are the words for Vocab Lesson 17. This, along with your Reading Record, are due on Monday for A day and Tuesday on B day. Start Term 3 out right by handing those two assignments in. If you do, you will have a perfect grade in my class. What a way to start Term 3!
Vocab 17:
1. affront - verb - to insult or confront: I affronted the man who said I look weird.
2. odious - adjective - deserving hatred, highly offensive.
