This class is all about WORDS! Focusing on both linguistic and cultural contexts, we will study the etymology of various words, phrases, idioms, concepts, etc. Students will prepare a “word of the day” presentation and be tested on these throughout the term, developing their own WORD dictionary. Students will analyze texts, play games, and do some creative writing.
In order to get credit for this class, you must complete all work including a “word of the day” presentation and the final vocabulary test. Open to all.
