Daily Vocabulary Word

Here are 2 vocabulary words that can be added to your vocabulary tool box.  You can draw a picture of the words, write a sentence using the words or write a paragraph using the words.  Then see how many times in the day, you can slip one of these words into your conversations with family or friends.

1.) Defenestrate - Verb. To throw something out a window.

2.) Argy-bargy - Noun. An argument or disagreement (It is a word mostly used by the British, but we find it a fun one to say!)

Example: The very near-sided man tripped on his cat while carrying a watermelon.  The watermelon flew from the man's arms, defenestrating and breaking all over the ground.  The chickens, which were roaming in the yard, had an argy-bargy over who got to take a peck at the juicy red watermelon first.
