All classes' word of the week - participation

This week, no one posted a word on the blog, so all classes learned the word participation.  To participate is to partake in or be active in something. Here are our sentences:

1. Michelle and Christian participated in trick or treat, but they didn't get any candy because their costumes were disappointing.

2. In gym, you must participate in all the activities; otherwise, you get a bad grade.

3. The students' participation in football games makes them hyped.

4. Goblins stole the ball, so Astrid cannot participate in soccer today.
