Free Rice: Activity One

Boys

Go to http://www.freerice.com and contribute food to those who are most needy in our world.

Choose ONE word that you come across and (as a comment below) post the word AND it's meaning AND use it in a sentence.

Not bad for a H/W assignment? It should only take you FIVE minutes!

We'll have a look over them on Tuesday during P2.

Good Luck

Sir
