Word of the Week: Pensive

Our word of the week for 3/5/12 to 3/9/12 is pensive.

The blogger who found this word says, "It was repeatedly said on a tv show I was watching describing a guy's mood."  The dictionary definition of pensive is, "engaged in, involving, or reflecting deep or serious thought."

The sentence we created in class to practice the word pensive is:

The student taking the test was pensive. 

Another sentence that was texted to the blog during class was:

The doctor looked pensive as he tried to figure out what was wrong with his patient.
