It helps with our vocabulary because if we misunderstand a word it helps us apply it to a real life circumstance. It even helps us practice using it in sentences,along with identifying the proper definition.

Well, first of all the target audience was everyone. The people who created it wanted to show their appreciation for the troops who served and are serving in Iraq. It made me feel depressed knowing that my cousin Oscar is manning a turret somewhere in Afghanistan blowing the guts out of any Taliban suicider that tries to get close enough to kill any of our troops. I'm pretty sure he's been shot at by now. I do believe the video has accomplished Its purpose. If not to anyone else, it did to me. I don't Understand how my presentation can do the same to anyone else.

It helps with our vocabulary because if we misunderstand a word it helps us apply it to a real life situation. It even helps us practice using it in sentences. The Frayer model is very helpful. Who made it? Let me guess, someone with a last name that is Frayer.I think I've seen it before somewhere. Maybe in 5th grade. My Gt teacher was all for that type of stuff. Anyway,this model helped me understand the word evaluate, Which was the only word I missed over and over again In the Rags to riches game.
