This document outlines a lesson plan for teaching 6th grade students about context clues. The objectives are for students to familiarize themselves with context clues, identify what they are, enumerate common types of context clues, and determine word meanings using context clues. The lesson will use a PowerPoint presentation to explain what context clues are and examples of different types like definition, synonym, antonym, and inference. Students will then practice identifying context clues in example sentences and answering assessment questions before being assigned a reading passage to identify unfamiliar words using context clues.
