In our efforts to continue to develop students’ literacy we have a  ‘Word of the Week’ programme.

The ‘Word of the Week’ will be displayed in classrooms and around the school and will be used throughout lessons in order to ensure students are developing their vocabulary. Literacy achievement points can now be awarded to students for the correct usage of these words in all lessons.

The ‘Word of the Week’ for the week commencing 18^th April is: Vociferous.

Vociferous:

Expressing ideas or opinions in a very forceful way.

Priya protested her detention vociferously, the dog really had eaten her homework!

Synonyms: boisterous, noisy, vehement

Antonyms: low, soft, quiet
