ACT
In this lesson, students will listen to stories and determine the meaning of the word by using sentence-level context clues. They will think about the verbs that are used and think about how that verb appeals to their senses, giving them a strong visual image. They will also be using the electronic thesaurus (thesaurus.com) to help us find interesting synonyms for common verbs. They will apply these new and interesting verbs to our writing. Printable resources are included.
