TASK CARDS ACTIVITY
This is a sorting activity in which students read paragraphs that contain an unknown word. They use context clues to determine what the word means and then match it up with a synonym card.
For example, one paragraph is about a girl singing in front of an audience. The unfamiliar word in the paragraph is petrified. Students use context clues such as the girl's shaking hands and the large crowd to figure out that petrified means scared. There is another paragraph containing the word startled. Students would also match this one up with the word scared because they have a similar meaning.
WORKSHEET
This activity has six short paragraphs with an unknown word in each. Students use context clues to understand the word and then choose the best meaning from four different choices.
DIGITAL ACTIVITIES:
This resource also includes digital activities and an assessment in Easel. These are self-grading activities with embedded audio so students can hear the questions and text read aloud. (Audio can be disabled by teacher if desired.)
