Vocabulary
Background & Rationale
This vocabulary test had words from the book Fahrenheit 451. We took this test to learn the definitions of these new and harder words. In order to take the test we needed to practice the words and study off of the vocabulary.com website. If we had not mastered 80% or more of the words on the day of the test, we were not allowed to take it yet.

I met the standards for this unit by using the words correctly based off of their part of speech and definition. I learned all of the words, how to spell them, and what they mean.
Reflection
This unit helped to expand my vocabulary and learn new words that I did not know before. I had a hard time trying to remember what the definition of some of the words because many of them had similar meanings, but besides that it was easy. Using vocabulary.com made it very easy to study the words and was very helpful for some of the words.
