CONTEXT CLUES READING COMPREHENSION PRACTICE CARDS
Presented in flash card format, this method of vocabulary decoding practice mimics standardized testing questions (so it helps pratice standardized testing skills while guiding students toward using context clues to determine word meaning) because it provides a leveled paragraph with a multiple choice definition question. They are award-winning education materials ("Dr. Toy Best Product winner"). Since they are premade materials, teachers could provide them as a option when students finish their work early. Teachers could also recommend that parents purchase the decks to help their child practice outside of school if vocabulary decoding is an identified weakness of a student's reading ability. Available in four reading levels, the 54-card decks allow teachers to match students to the appropriate reading level and allow students to advance and challenge themselves. Edupress Inc. (n.d.).
