Notes

This file contains three useful Word of the Day sheets for the Wordmaster.  The first is one to use when printing the Word of the Day in landscape mode on letter size (8-1/2” x 11”) paper.  The second is one to use when printing on legal size (8-1/2” x 14”) paper.  Note that the idea here is to use the largest possible font size without the text wrapping to the next line.  A five letter word fits at a font size of 240 on letter size paper.  A seven letter word fits at a font size of 220 on legal size paper.  The third sheet in this file is a table of slips which the Wordmaster can choose to distribute to attendees in addition to posting the word on the letter or legal size paper.  The first line contains the pronunciation of the word, with the stressed syllable in bold face.  The type of word, adjective in this example, is also provided.  The lines following contain definitions and a sample sentence demonstrating the word’s proper use.

Instructions

A one inch margin has been set for the two templates.  This should allow sufficient space for you to affix tape and not cover up any text.

For the word slip table, simply modify one of the table’s cells per the explanation above, then select the cell’s contents, copy with CTRL-C and paste with CTRL-V into the other cells of the table.  Print the sheet out and cut the slips along the lines with scissors.

Please also acquire the Wordmaster’s Worksheet from the Member Downloads section of the site.  The worksheet provides space for the Wordmaster to record the word, its part of speech, definition and a sentence showing proper usage (replicated on the word slips below).  It also contains a chart on which the Wordmaster records use of the word by meeting attendees.  Instructions accompany the Wordmaster’s Worksheet.
