English 10--Period 4

For homework, look at the class vocabulary list we created yesterday, choose four words, and for each word do the following:  find a different form of the word, write either the original or the new form of the word in a sentence, and find at least one related word (look for a word that has a similar root).  Please look at the Period 2 blog entry to see an example of this.

Here is the Period 4 class vocabulary list: (noun=n; adjective=adj; adverb=adv; verb=v)
  1. luminescent (adj)
  2. elusive (adj)
  3. corrosive (adj)
  4. cleave (v)
  5. gregarious (adj)
  6. whirligig (n)
  7. azure (adj)
  8. invalid (n/adj/v): noun--a person made weak or disabled through injury or illness; adj--something which is untrue/something which is not valid;v--to disable/remove from service
  9. opulent (adj)
  10. disgruntled (adj)
(For the word invalid, learn the fist definition.)

In addition to this, please write down two truths and a lie about yourself that we can play in class at some point over the course of the semester.
