Using context clues (CCSS RF 3.4c) was a difficult skill for my kids to master when it came to testing. I knew they were using context clues as they read but somehow they would not get the answers correct when we did Benchmark testing (my district's Unit test). So.. after reading the book Frindle, I had my students make their own "frindles" for other people to use clues to find in this Frindle Context Clue Center.
For those of you that don't know, a frindle is a pen and Nick communicates this to his teacher by using context clues so it fits in well. Your kids can definitely do this if they have not read the book! This pack also includes an awesome dictionary/ Vocabulary activity as well as the rubrics needed for the center and activity!
You can get this activity by clicking any of the pictures or the activity name! It definitely helped my students this year and I hope it helps yours too!
