i have the students fold their papers into 4 colums. first: word second: meaning from context third: draw a picture of the word's meaning fourth: use the word in a sentence you can add more columns if you want to add anything. if the student is actively thinking during this process, the student usually learns the word well enough to 'own it'. hope this helps. *\l/**\l/**\l/*Lynn*\l/**\l/**\l/* Doctorate Student, Florida Atlantic University
