Sophs--Vocab Sentences Unit 10

All students in all of my sections of sophomore English classes should post their vocabulary sentence for Unit 10 at this site.

Make sure you give a context clue to the meaning of the word within your sentence.

Make sure you indicate the authorship of your sentence by writing your initials and your section color.

This is due before 9 p.m. on Sunday night, February 22. I need the sentences posted before then so that I can make up my test for class on Monday.
