The glossary assignment is to define a word you are unfamiliar with and explain why the author used that word. At first I had doubts about the glossary assignments. I thought we would just give the definition of the word and a sentence explaining it. Instead it turned into in depth explanations. Usually when i come across a word that i don’t know, I would just skip it. Instead, now whenever i see a word I don’t know, i would search it up online. Sometimes even after searching the definition of the word, I wouldn’t understand it. As English being my worst subject, interpreting the story was very difficult for me. By reading other classmates glossary entry explanations, it made me understand the reading much better. This helped me learn new words and expand my vocabulary in writing assignments. This is a great way to form a habit of searching the words that you don’t understand.
