Printable: Word of the Week: Tenacious

I like the word tenacious.  The way it rolls off your tongue.  It really is the perfect word for holding too something - a belief, an ideal, a person.  To me, it means if you are tenacious enough to believe in something so strongly, you'll take that next step and do something with it - you'll be the change we need in the world.  Sticking to what you believe, what's in your heart is hard, and we need a tough word to give the courage to keep going.  Be tenacious today.

Printable: Word of the Week: Illuminate

While it may not be very "educational", the hands down best use of the word illuminate comes from the Genie in Aladdin.  

"Master! I don't think you quite realize what you got here. So why don't you just ruminate whilst I illuminate the possibilities."

Printable: Word of the Week: Courage

I enjoy the word of the week.  I like the extra vocabulary and the way it encourages students to use it and it was my bonus word for my spelling list each week. Teachers would even ask my students about the word and what it meant during the week. So I'll be putting up a new word of the week for you to start to collect.
