Two new strategies:

• Inferences:a guess that you make or an opinion that you form based on the information that you have:
• Context-Clues:Context clues are hints that an author gives to help define a difficult or unusual word. The clue may appear within the same sentence as the word to which it refers, or it may follow in a preceding sentence.

Assignment 2:

• Check your answers with another pair. Are you in agreement?

Let's Practice Context clues:
