ABOUT USING CONTEXT TO DETERMINE WORD MEANINGS

In this week, we formally introduce the students to using context to determine word meanings, an important word-learning strategy they can use in their independent reading. In this lesson, the students learn that they can sometimes figure out the meaning of a word by reading the sentence that includes the word, or the sentence before or after, and looking for clues to determine the word’s meaning. In subsequent lessons, the students review and practice the strategy. It is important to point out that we have the students practice the strategy only when the text of a read-aloud provides explicit clues to a word’s meaning. If you wish to use other texts to provide the students with more practice in using context, we suggest that you look for words that are clearly defined or explained by the context, so that the students will not have to guess at the meanings. For a complete table of words for which students use context to determine their meanings in grade 2 and the weeks in which they are introduced, see Appendix C. For more information about using context to determine word meanings and other word-learning strategies, see “Independent Word-learning Strategies” in the Introduction.

Week 13 ODay 1 217

I N T R O D U C E A N D U S E P R E PA R E1 Introduce Prepare and Using Context to Determine

Word MeaningsBriefly review Erandi’s Braids.

Display the “Sentences from Erandi’s Braids” chart ( WA2). Show page 5 of the book and remind the students that in this part of the story Erandi is helping Mamá make tortillas. Read the charted sentences where they appear on page 5 aloud, emphasizing the word prepare.

Tell the students that the first word they will learn today is prepare. Direct their attention to the context sentences on the chart (WA2), and explain that these are the sentences you just read. Point to the word prepare and underline it.

Remind the students that they can sometimes figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word—like prepare—by looking for clues. Review that they can look for clues in the sentence that includes the word or in the sentences that come before or after it. Explain that, as you read the sentence that includes the word prepare again, you want the students to think about what prepare might mean and which words in the sentence are clues to the meaning of prepare.

Read the sentence that includes prepare aloud. Then discuss as a class:

Q Based on what you just heard, what do you think the word prepare might mean?

Point to the first prompt and read it aloud.

PROMPT: “I think prepare might mean . . .”

If necessary, explain that prepare means “get ready to do something or make something ready.” Then discuss:

Q What clues help you figure out the meaning of the word prepare?

Point to the second prompt and read it aloud.

WA2Sentences from Erandi’s BraidsWhen Mamá finished, Erandi helped her prepare the

dough for the tortillas.

As she mixed and patted, Erandi heard voices

from a loudspeaker in the street.

PROMPT: I think prepare might mean . . .

PROMPT: The clues help me figure out

the meaning of the word prepare.

MM3e_VTG_G2_W13_WA2_6021.png MM3e_VTG_G2_W13_WA2_6021_annoA.pdf

Teacher NoteAlternatively, you might write the context sentences where everyone can see them.

E ELL NoteThe Spanish cognate of prepare is preparar.

Technology TipTo find web-based activities that focus on using context to determine word meanings, you might search online using the keywords “whiteboard context clues activities.” For more information, view the “Using Web-based Whiteboard Activities” tutorial (AV42).

PROMPT: “The clues [‘mixed and patted’] help me figure out the meaning of the word prepare.”

Have a few volunteers use the prompt to share their thinking with the class. Circle the context clues on the chart as the students identify them. If necessary, point out that the words mixed and patted are clues that help us figure out that “prepare the dough” means “get the dough ready for the tortillas.”

I N T R O D U C E A N D U S E E M B A R R A S S3 Introduce and Define Embarrass

Show pages 20–21 of Erandi’s Braids and review that, in this part of the story, Mamá tries to sell her hair. Read the first three sentences on page 20 aloud, emphasizing the word embarrassment.

Explain that Mamá is embarrassed when the barber says her hair is not long enough, and that embarrass means “make someone feel ashamed or uncomfortable.” Explain that Mamá is so embarrassed by the barber’s words that her face gets red and she turns to leave without saying a word.

Direct the students’ attention to the word cards (WA3), reveal word card 50, and have the students say the word embarrass.

4 Discuss Being EmbarrassedExplain that you will describe a situation, and partners will discuss whether they would be embarrassed and why.

220 Making Meaning® Vocabulary Teaching Guide, Grade 2

E X T E N S I O NExplore English Words Borrowed from SpanishRemind the students that Erandi’s Braids takes place in Mexico and that the author, Antonio Hernández Madrigal, uses Spanish words in the story, including buenos días (good morning), mi hija (my daughter), Señor (Mr.), and Señora (Mrs.). Tell the students that the story also includes some Spanish words that are so commonly used among speakers of English that they have become part of the English language. Explain that we say these words are “borrowed” from Spanish.

Show page 5 of Erandi’s Braids and review that Erandi helps her mother prepare food in the morning. Read the first sentence on page 5 aloud, emphasizing the word tortillas. Explain that tortilla is a word borrowed from Spanish and now widely used by English speakers. Write the word tortilla where everyone can see it, and ask:

Q What is a tortilla?

Q Who has eaten a tortilla? Tell us about it.

If necessary, explain that tortillas are “thin pancakes made of cornmeal or flour.”

Show page 8 and explain that the author uses another word borrowed from Spanish in this part of the story. Read the last sentence on page 8 aloud, emphasizing the word fiesta. Write the word fiesta where everyone can see it, and ask:

Q What is a fiesta?

Q Who has been to a fiesta? Tell us about it.

If necessary, explain that a fiesta is a “party or celebration with food, music, and dancing.”

Explain that there are many other English words borrowed from Spanish, and discuss a few of the following: canyon, lasso, mosquito, patio, rodeo, taco, and tornado.

Week 13 ODay 2 223

I N T R O D U C E A N D U S E H U D D L E4 Introduce and Define Huddle

Show page 17 again and review that Erandi is frightened. Reread this sentence aloud, emphasizing the word huddled: “She gripped Mamá’s hand and huddled in her skirt.”

Explain that huddle means “move in close to someone or crowd together in a tight group.” Explain that Erandi huddles, or moves in close to Mamá, because she is afraid. Huddling in Mamá’s skirt makes her feel safer.

Direct the students’ attention to the word cards (WA3), reveal card 52, and have the students say the word huddle.

5 Think About HuddlingExplain that people often huddle when they are afraid, cold, or want to talk or look at something together. Show the illustration on page 17 and point to the huddling women. Explain that they are probably huddling because they want to talk together.

Tell the students that you will describe a situation and partners will discuss whether they would huddle if they were in that situation.

Begin by reading the following situation aloud:

• Imagine you are camping with some friends in a tent in your backyard. You are telling scary stories. Suddenly you hear a strange noise outside the tent.

Ask:

Q Would you huddle with your friends? Why? [Show prompt 3.] Turn to your partner.

PROMPT 3: “I [would/would not] huddle with my friends because . . .”

After partners have talked, have a few volunteers use the prompt to share their thinking with the class.

Using the same procedure, discuss:

• Imagine you are on a class trip to a farm. You notice an egg starting to hatch. You shout to your friends, “It’s hatching! Come and look!”

Point to the word huddle on the word cards (WA3) and review the pronunciation and meaning of the word.

Teacher NoteSave the word cards (WA3) to use on Day 3.

224 Making Meaning® Vocabulary Teaching Guide, Grade 2

M O R E S T R AT E G Y P R AC T I C EDiscuss Shades of Meaning with Grip, Grab, and HoldWrite the words grip, grab, and hold where everyone can see them. As a class, discuss:

Q How are the words grip and hold alike? How are they different?

If necessary, review that grip and hold mean about the same thing, with one important difference: if you grip something, you don’t just hold it, you hold it very tightly. You could hold something gently, but you could never grip something gently.

Ask:

Q If you were on a roller coaster, would you grip the handle in front of you or simply hold it? Why? Turn to your partner.

After partners have talked, have one or two volunteers briefly share their thinking with the class. Then ask:

Q If your friend were showing you his new pet kitten and handed it to you, would you grip the kitten or simply hold it? Why? Turn to your partner.

After partners have talked, have one or two volunteers share their thinking.

Now ask the students what they know about the word grab. Ask:

Q How are the words grip and grab alike? How are they different?

If necessary, explain that grabbing is related to gripping and holding, but grabbing is what we do when we first pick something up or first take hold of it. You might grab your bag on your way out of the house, but you don’t continue grabbing it all the way to school.

Ask:

Q If you were the batter in a game of softball, which would you do first: grab the bat or grip the bat? Why? Turn to your partner.

After partners have talked, have one or two volunteers use the prompt to share their thinking.

Teacher NoteIf you started a “Just the Right Word” chart, add the word grip to it along with its definition, “hold something very tightly.”
