TKAM Vocab

Ladies and Gentlemen, below is the list of vocabulary words for Section 1 (Chapters 1-5). Here are the requirements for ALL vocabulary lists while we are working on To Kill a Mockingbird:
1) Use the Dictionary link found on the Useful Links menu to the right of the posts.
2) Find the terms in the text and use the definition that matches the context from the novel.
3) Write/type/list the correct definitions. These definitions will be graded at the end of the section, i.e. once we finish Chp. 5, I will check to see that you have the definitions completed.
4) When we finish a section, there will be a spelling test and vocab quiz or crossword puzzle.

There are no set dates for the tests or definitions. Pay attention in class to our progress in each section. There will be verbal reminders as we go, but it's almost time for high school and you need to continue becoming independent learners.

Section 1 list:
Synonyms Collards Repertoire

Malevolent Predilection Beadle

Inquisitive Benign Dispensation

Erratic Iniquities Contentious

Monosyllabic Gothic Probate

Edification Cowlick Vapid

Nocturnal Domiciled Nebulous
