The second week of vocabulary during the second semester incorporates skill building in conventions. A lesson is presented in the beginning of the second week, students complete a short assignment, and elements of the lessons are used in the vocabulary quizzes.  Students might be asked to correct, identify, or create sentences using the studied grammatical lesson.
