Word for the Day: Wednesday, September 30, 2015

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Absorption. This word is related to our Theme, Retention, especially in the non-academic definitions. For example, you can absorb water into your body, from the foods you eat (as well as liquids you drink), and then "retain it" (often with less than pleasant results). But getting back to learning, Absorption works well with languages, as it's how a child learns. (It's called the "Immersion technique" as, after any introductions, the only language spoken in the class is normally the one being learned).
