Word of the Day for 365 Days!

21st session

New learners are always welcome!! In this series, there is one session every other single day for a whole year! How it works:  We go over the pronunciation, definition, synonyms and antonyms, origin, (and maybe some fun facts), and how to use the word in a sentence. There is always a super fun Kahoot about the word. Then we have idiom of the day where we introduce a new idiom, its meaning, and how it's used in a sentence.  Then, at the end, we have two quotes of the day! They may be inspirational, or funny, or both!  I hope to see you there! These sessions are perfect for expanding your vocabulary. Changes from the original series: - Sessions will be hosted every other day. - Learners who misbehave in any way that slightly defers the Schoolhouse policy will be removed. - Our original host will not be involved in this series.
