In partners, look at the Vocabulary words on page 15. Each word has the page number where the word is located. Make a chart similar to the one in my example. One column should read "What I think" and the other column should read "Definition".
Turn to the page number for the first vocab word: Jowls. Try to guess the meaning of the word from the context of its paragraph. Write your guess under the column "What I Think". Once you have made a context clue guess for every word, use an online dictionary to look up the correct definition for the words. Write the definition in the column "Definition".
When both columns are filled in for each word, you may post your comment.
