Step 3:
Write Sentences
For each word write two sentences that indicate you know the meaning of the word. Then
read aloud quickly three times each set of sentences that came to you.
If you hesitated
before coming up with the sentences
or had to look up a word,
say each of those sen-
tences six times and write the vocabulary word you are studying at least three times. You
can write them anywhere—on
the lines after the sentences,
in the margin,
or on a piece of
paper—as long as you write them.
