What educators are saying
Was very useful to help my tutoring students understand concepts. Thank you for putting it all together.
Description
This Common Core language lesson asks students to determine the meaning of unknown words using context clues. In the lesson, students will identify context clues in a passage (not just a sentence) that suggest the meaning of a bolded word. Then, they will identify the meaning of the bolded word and use it in a sentence. In addition to the lesson, there are numerous pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after the Common Core assessment items.
