Unit 2 Study Guide Directions: Step 1: Make a copy of this document and go through the list of vocabulary words: highlight words you know in green, highlight words you are familiar with in yellow, highlight words you don’t know in red. Step 2: Pick 15 words that you highlighted in yellow and create a flashcard for each of them. I then want you to teach your friend/neighbor what the concept means. Step 3: For all the words you highlighted in red, make flashcards. Write the term on the front. On the back, write both the definition and a personal example or a mnemonic device to help you remember the term. Step 4: I WILL be checking that you highlighted this document as well as made at least 20 flashcards.
