Vocabulary List Fate Fearless Glimmer Lingers Magnified Somber Steed Introduce Vocabulary Dear Diary, Father asked me to take the steed to the barn after dinner. Our horse, Belle, always lingers near the house at sunset. Belle waits there, hoping for some extra grain. Just then, I could see the sun glimmer near the horizon. I tried to sneak up on Belle so she wouldn’t run off, but the sound of my walking was magnified by the new heels on my boots. The minute Belle heard me coming, she galloped away into the somber dusk. I yelled a warning for her to stop, but Belle is fearless with me. Despite my shouts, she just looked at me as if to say, “Ha! Ha!” Just wait until father comes out for her. Then her fate will be sealed! Number a sheet of paper 1-7. Reread one or two sentences at a time. Look at how the vocabulary words are used. Write down a synonym or meaning for each vocabulary word.

Vocabulary Strategy Inflected endings: -s, -ed, and –ing The inflected ending –s, -ed, and –ing may be added to verbs. You can use these endings to help you figure out the meanings of unfamiliar verbs. Cover the ending and read the base form of the word. Reread the sentence and make sure the word is a verb, that it shows action. (Nouns can also end in –s.) Now look in the sentence for clues about what the word may mean. See if your meaning makes sense in the sentence. As you read “War Heroes in Stone,” look for verbs that end with –s, -ed, or –ing. Think about the endings and the way the words are used to help you figure out their meanings. Home
