*******************************

CONTEXT CLUES is an important skill that students must master in order to improve and enhance their comprehension of texts. When coming across an unknown word, a student can use other words in the text that are usually in the same sentence or nearby sentences that provide clues to the meaning of the unfamiliar word. This skill is especially important for students to apply not only on state exams, but to any text or reading they come across.

This Context Clues Bundle provides a variety of fun opportunities for students to learn how to use context clues to determine the meanings of unknown words as they read.

The bundle includes an in-depth step-by-step lesson plan that carefully guides teachers in showing students “HOW TO” both identify and use different context clues types to figure out the meaning of unknown words. The bundle also includes Reading Passages, PowerPoints, Practice Worksheets, Fun Activities, Task Cards, Assessments, Posters, ANSWER KEYS, and more!

This resource focuses on the following five Context Clues types:

✨ Definition clues

✨ Synonym clues

✨ Antonym clues

✨ Example clues

✨ Inference clues

All PowerPoints, Worksheets, and Posters are visually appealing as they include a variety of fun and realistic graphics, borders, and background paper. Students will be attentive and engaged throughout the entire learning experience!

The PowerPoints cannot be edited due to copyright requirements made by contributing font and clip art artists.

My own students are absolutely in love with these bookmarks. They found it fun to complete the different bookmarks and couldn’t wait to get their hands on the Visualize bookmark. They literally begged me to do them again. As a teacher, I loved that I could be strategic with who received which bookmark. My students who were still learning English focused on acquiring new words, while my strong readers searched for figurative language. We’ve used them with novels during silent reading time, a short story from our ELA curriculum, and online news articles. I don’t think they realize just how much critical thinking and close reading they are doing. To them, they’re just having fun!

Designed for an entire year, this packet can also be used at any point in the year because of the spiraling layout (each figure of speech shows up every eight weeks and then repeats until the final 14 weeks, where all the figures of speech are combined). This layout ensures that your students walk out of your class with a firm grasp on each figurative language element.

Used as a warm-up, homework, or an early finisher activity, each figurative language activity is designed to last 3-6 minutes and is common core aligned for 3rd-6th grade.

For specific information about the layout, please see below.

FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE SORTING ACTIVITY (AND STICKY NOTE SORT):

This differentiated activity for figurative language includes hyperboles, metaphors, similes, puns, proverbs/adages, idioms, onomatopoeia, personification, and alliteration.

There are over 200 figures of speech that can be categorized in each area. Created for 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th grade, this activity is perfect for individuals, pairs, small groups, or the whole class.

DIFFERENTIATION:

• There are full color cards and category toppers for students who are new to figures of speech (or for ESL students who are learning the language). Each figure of speech is color coded (all idioms are green, for example).
• The black and white cards and category toppers are designed for students who are familiar with figures of speech, but need practice.
• The answer sheets are also differentiated.

You can choose to:

• allow students to do the activity without an answer sheet
• use the answer sheet that simply requires students to write the number of each figure of speech next to the correct category
• use the answer sheet that also requires students to provide evidence for their choice

IDEAS FOR USE:

• use as a test review

• use as a game- groups work to complete the activity first (with the highest accuracy)

• use as an introduction for each figure of speech (the color coded set)

• use as an evaluation

• use during stations on a bulletin board or white board

• use as a catalyst for a class discussion on figures of speech

• use as a review at the beginning of the year for students who have been exposed to figurative language

NOTE: THESE FILES INCLUDE A DIGITAL DISTANCE LEARNING OPTION!

These products include a digital option (as well as the no prep printable option). The instructions for utilizing the digital portion appear at the end of the packet.
