1. Unit 1 Cluster 2 Vocabulary Review
 * Quizlet
 * Practice the flash cards with students.
 * Ask volunteers to read the word, the part of speech, and the definition.
 * Ask the class how to translate the word to Arabic and Spanish (and other languages if the students know them).

2. 10/5/10 Scan for Vocabulary pg. 34-41
 * In their notebooks, students will create a 3-column chart with the above title.
 * If students don't know a word, they write it down in the first column.
 * After students create their list of words, they translate them into their primary language. (2nd column)
 * In the 3rd column, students write a synonym of the scanned vocabulary word (a synonym in any language).
 * Students know how to do this, they have done it 2 times so far this year.
 * If students focus on their work, they can do this in groups of 2 to 4.

3. Vocabulary Foldable
 * Ask students how to create a vocabulary foldable (remind them that they did this with words a few weeks ago):
 * Students fold a sheet of blank paper so it is a booklet.
 * Students write the new vocabulary words (on page 32) on the outside.
 * Inside students write the definition in one column (in English and/or their first language) and draw a picture representing the word in another column.
 * If students focus on their work, they can do this in groups of 2 to 4.

4. If more time is remaining:
 * give each group of students one or two of the vocabulary words (see page 32)
 * have the groups write sentences for the words you gave them
 * have each group report their sentences to the class
