Thursday 2/21: New words

1. Title
2. Page #
3. Find three words that are unfamiliar to you. Re-read the paragraphs that they are from in your book.  
4. Based on what you read, write a definition for each word in your own words (not from a dictionary - we want to hear your hypothesis). The definition should be a complete, grammatically correct sentence :-)
Example...
Homely - I think "homely" means someone who has a plain appearance.
