Periods 4 & 7 Word of the Week: apopletic

Periods 4 and 7 selected apopletic as this week's word for learning.  An apopletic is "a person having or predisposed to apoplexy."  We also looked up apoplexy, and we discovered that it means having strokes.

Our sentences demonstrating understanding of the word apopletic are:

1. Kelvin's story is inspirational because despite his apopletic history, he is still a great sprinter.
2. Gertrude is an apopletic; she has a stroke every three to four minutes.
