Included on this page is a sample vocabulary lesson based on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. This lesson includes individual vocabulary lessons, sentence completion tests, a multiple choice test, and an analytical writing assignment. Teachers may teach 10 words at a time, giving the student only 10 definitions and 10 sample sentences. This makes it convenient to print only one lesson at a time. The multiple choice test is cumulative, including words from all lists.
