Period 8 Word of the Week: Cajun

On September 6, period 8 chose Cajun as our word of the week.

We used Wikipedia to find our definition of Cajun because it is a word that is commonly understood, and the dictionary might not have as much information as an encyclopedic website.

We discovered that Cajuns are "an ethnic group living mainly in Louisiana, descended from French and African immigrants to the U.S."

We then wrote a sentence about Cajuns:

The Cajuns are most dominant in Louisiana.
