Lexicon Hunt

Students use a dictionary-digital or print-to investigate rare vocabulary words. For each word, they record the precise definition, part of speech, pronunciation, and then craft an original sentence demonstrating understanding. This task strengthens dictionary skills, reinforces accurate usage, and promotes mastery of advanced vocabulary. By generating their own sentences, students actively apply new words in meaningful context. The worksheet supports academic vocabulary growth and encourages independence in word learning.
