Kayla’s class at school hosts a word auction every now and then. Whenever the kids come across a word they don’t know they write it down, look up the definition and get to use it as a word for the auction. They can bid as high as they have cards for. Kayla had 71 this time I think? Anyhow, she won the bid and had to stand in front of everyone and give the definition for the words the teacher read. She did great! I am always so impressed with the kids knowing these words. I am one who tends to know what the words mean but not the dictionary definition. At the last auction of the year she will get to be the auctioneer. The prizes for the winners are a book to keep and a very large chocolate bar.
