This Common Core aligned vocabulary activity will help your second graders quickly learn and retain weekly McGraw-Hill Wonders Series reading vocabulary while using context clues to determine the meanings of unknown words. The "Get Ready!" section can be teacher directed to help students practice understanding each new word using context clues. It has a helpful word bubble for the students to write a few "easy words" to help them remember the new vocabulary. The "Get Set!" section can be for students to try matching the new words to the proper definitions independently or with teacher guidance. The "Go!" section can be used as an assessment for students to show their understanding of the learned vocabulary. It also makes a great homework study guide to practice for the test!
