Clase Flex: Taller de Vocabulario (Ascent - Inure)

A large vocabulary is critical to future success on standardized tests, in college, and in the workplace. So why not start building a better vocabulary right now? In this four-week FLEX class, students will learn 10 vocabulary words during each weekly session. In the video, the instructor will present the word's part of speech, definition, etymology, synonyms, antonyms, and use in language. 

This class uses the same class format as the popular ongoing class, Vocabulary Workshop. If your student has taken the live class before, please check the word list below to ensure that you are not repeating words. 

Each week, students will receive a worksheet to use while watching the video to write down definitions, synonyms, and antonyms. Students will also be given access to a Quizlet (online flashcards and games) and a Nearpod activity to practice the words throughout the week. 

Week 1: stupefying, evince, mote, dubious, hallmark, ascribe, disquiet, inimical, alien, preen
Week 2: ascent, assent, auspicious, idiosyncratic, rife, inadequate, cacophony, reciprocate, disconcerted, occlude
Week 3: fidelity, pariah, diminutive, excursion, forage, beleaguered, coerce, literally, dwell, evanescent
Week 4: crescendo, gambol, bequeath, scintillating, untoward, fractious, bard, tutelage, attenuate, inure
