This week for Word Work, I did Meanings, Word Origins, Sentences and for my fun activity, I did Syllabification. 
Meanings: Google the word and find the meaning, then write it in our own words.
Word Origins: Google the word and find the origins, then write them down eg. Pronounce: Latin, French, Engish.
Sentences: Write the word into a sentence.
Syllabification: put a '-' between each syllable eg. sy-lla-ble.
