English II (on-level): Vocabulary for Haiti Article



Use the the ten words above to write meaningful sentences.

Remember:
  • a meaningful sentence is made up of two independent sentences combined with a semicolon (;)

  • the first sentence includes a vocabulary word

  • the second sentence contains the definition of that vocabulary word

  • the first word of the second sentence is not capitalized

  • you should underline the vocabulary word and its definition


For instance, if the vocabulary word was:
Haitian (n.): a resident of or person whose nation of origin is Haiti.
a meaningful sentence would be:
Willie Samson, my next-door neighbor, is a Haitian; I never knew anyone from Haiti until he moved in.
