Olivia Expands Our Vocabulary

Rm I were reading a story for Winter Warmers. In the story it mentioned the word poignant. No one in Rm I knew what the definition of this word was. Mrs Palmer issued us with a challenge. Olivia was the first student to come back with the definition.

Poignant: a feeling of sadness or deep emotion. Something that affects you deeply and makes you feel sadness or regret.

Her example: Remember when we were at the vets and our dog got put down. It was a very poignant time and memory.
