But many times, there are context clues in the sentence that give hints about the meaning of an unknown word. This worksheet offers practice using context clues. Using sentence and word context to find the meaning of unknown words is an important reading strategy.

    There is a typo on the word conspicuous (2nd sentence) in this exercise. Other than that I think is a great excercise for enhancingvocabulary .
