Vocabulary Quiz on Tuesday. Students need to know the definition of the following words as well as be able to write a sentence that demonstrates context. For example, if writing a sentence with "flank":
"I always make sure to approach the horse's flank rather than from behind, so I don't get kicked."
is much better than: "I went to the horse's flank."
