Say It in a Sentence
Knowing a word is not remembering it. It is knowing where it goes.
No score is kept. No points, no streak, no ranking — the only number anyone writes down is the one your teacher writes down, standing next to you.
Show me one first
This one is nobody's word — it is only here to show the moves before you touch yours. Watching it costs nothing and is written down nowhere.
Now word 1 is yours. The hint button is there the whole time, and using it is part of the lesson.

- 6Sunlight is to a green plant. Take it away and photosynthesis stops.choose from: integral · resources · essential · uniquely
- 7Light, water and air are the a plant uses to make its own food.choose from: essential · uniquely · integral · resources

There is no right answer here. It only tells your teacher where to start next time.
Eight sentences, eight words that fit.
Chemical and chemistry are one letter-string apart and do different jobs. So are synthesis and photosynthesis. Reading the whole sentence first is what tells them apart.

One probe row, built from what happened on this screen. Nothing is sent anywhere — copy it into the Goal Builder yourself, or print this page. Independent means answered with no hints; supported means answered after a hint. Both are real evidence and neither is a grade.

Words 1–5 are this unit's science words; 6–8 are the borrowed words. The wrong choices are the look-alikes on purpose — chemical against chemistry, synthesis against photosynthesis. Set 2 and Set 3 are the same eight jobs on different words from the same list.
To run this on your own word list, open the Science Vocabulary page and paste it there. It is stored on this computer only, and every activity that can honestly run it will pick it up. One that cannot will say so and keep this unit's words.
