Understanding Vocabulary Through Context and Word Roots in Grade 5 Reading

This resource focuses on helping 5th-grade students enhance their vocabulary skills by determining the meanings of unknown and multiple-meaning words and phrases. It emphasizes flexible use of strategies, including using context clues (like cause/effect relationships and comparisons), as well as understanding Greek and Latin affixes and roots. Students will learn to identify and clarify both general academic and domain-specific vocabulary, such as "humiliation," "fringes," "expectations," "coaxed," "sincere," and "hesitating," improving their reading comprehension and language skills.
