Context Clues Medley

Context Clues Medley is a free set of three activity sheets with various types of questions for students to practice the reading skill of using context clues. Students read short passages and then use text-based evidence from the passages to respond to questions including: multiple choice, short answer, using a word box, listing synonyms, and completing a chart.

The passages and questions are selected from two of my larger resources, which you can see here:

Context Clues Task Cards - Expedition

Context Clues Practice Sheets

Activity sheets are great for class review and practice sessions or for individualized practice for students who may need extra help. Students can work on them individually or in small groups.

These activities were designed with middle school and upper elementary students in mind, and support the English Language standard for determining and clarifying the meaning of unknown words using context from the student's reading.
