Dauphin Daily Words are to be written in a spiral notebook. Students copy the definition, synonyms, antonyms, family words, helpful hints, and sentence throughout the day. On Fridays, their English teacher checks the notebook for a grade. Also, Dauphin Daily Word quizzes are given each Friday and a Unit Test is given after each unit. Please click on the unit to find the definition and word parts.
