What's that? The Oxford English Dictionary is online and free?! What's that? It tells you the origins of words along with accurate definitions?! What?! It also says when the word was first used?! What?!
Although it may seem a bit dense at first, but the dictionary is really useful and straight-forward besides that. Plus, you should always be on the lookout for cool words, and this way, you might just learn another cool word while learning the definition of the first word!
This resource, like many of the others, would be presented at the beginning of the school year. My students would then have absolutely no excuse for not knowing any word. Ever.
