Word 10-M&M-denotation (n.), Copy chart, copy dictionary definition and look up dictionary definition of shack and cabin or copy charts and definitions from a classmate.
denotation
de: down from or about nota: to distinguish tion-makes words nouns
denotation: literal definition of a word, NOT the feelings a word suggests (or connotation)
After looking up/copying definitions for shack and cabin, you will see their denotation is the same, however the connotation each word has is very different. We imagine a shack as an undesirable place to live and a cabin as a vacation home.
See Ms. Batten for a copy of current M&M words from all of your classes.
