Context Clues Task Cards – Defining Made Up Words – With Differentiation!

Description

Practice using context clues with fun, engaging task cards! Each task card has a sentence with a word from an “alien language” that students are prompted to define by multiple choice answers or short answers.

These cards are an excellent tool for evaluating students’ proficiency in using context clues, demonstrating their ability to deduce meanings from surrounding text rather than just relying on a robust vocabulary.
