Word of the Day- April 29, 2019

Here’s another word to enrich your vocabulary. This word was contributed by Nikunj Narang of class 5C.

Off late, the children of C have started contributing new words for the Word Wall of our class. Some children who have done this are Aanya Dhawan, Atharv Nag, Poorvi Sarda, Trinabh Mehra among others.

The class gives me the word. But for it to be put up on the Word Wall, they need to be able to tell the meaning as well.

We now have a flourishing Word Wall with many new words. Try the same in your class. Contribute words you have read or heard for your classmates to learn. Let’s call it the “Present: A Word Activity“. Get the pun there?

By the way, does the pizza remind you of a previous word uploaded on the blog? It starts with the letter ‘D’. Do define it as well in the comments below.

Keep learning, keep growing!

  5. Dear Ma’am Tarana
    I have fever ,but still I was waiting for the word of the day. When I didn’t read the meaning of the word, it felt me like the meaning must be very spooky. It sounded like a magical spell. Ma’am it too reminded me of the word “delicious” as you sended it on the blog as well as it was in the April vocabulary.
    Sentence – I am always very ravenous when I miss an opportunity of having a full cheesy pizza with a lot of topping.

    1. Gangesh, get well soon! Everyone missed you in class today.
      An interesting visual you have there!
      And sweety, you don’t need to add ‘very’ before ‘ravenous’ because the word itself means ‘very hungry’.
      Take care!

        I also missed the class today.
        I will make sure that in future I will not write “very” before the word “ravenous”.
        Thank You

    The word pizza reminded me of the word ‘delicious’. I think you had uploaded it in one of your earlier blog posts.

    Here is my sentence – I had skipped my mid-day meal at school and so I was ravenous when I came back home.

    Thanks
