Purple Pencil Dictionary Adventure

October 16th is National Dictionary Day! Here's a great way to celebrate:

- Go to the dictionary - or go to dictionary.com.

- Find 5 words you don't already know. Or you can pick 5 unfamiliar words from a book and look them up.

- Write down each word and its definition. Then, write five sentences; use one new word in each sentence.

- Challenge your friends and family to do the same.

This is a fabulous way to expand your vocabulary!

Write about your Dictionary Adventure in the comments section below. Bonus points for using one of your new words.
