Remember, most of the work will be completed in class (the wordle can't be printed in class). If you use your time wisely you will have enough to not only do this work, but to do some Achieve 3000.


Although some students took the initiative to complete the wordle at home they did not have the complete list of vocabulary words. The wordles that were submitted on Thursday will be considered complete. All others should be based on the following words.
