Here are two context clues worksheets on the verb resolve (it’s used both intransitively and transitively) and the noun resolution.

Let me end the day by posting this context clues worksheet on the noun industry, which students really need to know to understand, at the very least, the social studies curriculum. But there is also the figurative use, which might be handy in a locution like “You are a portrait of industry today,” addressed to your loved one who is making you holiday cookies.

It seems to me a word high school students ought to know by the time they graduate, so I wrote this context clues worksheet on the adjective incipient.

As I near the end of 2019, I’m developing new materials (e.g. look here, in 2020, for new social studies materials based in Judith C. Hochman and Natalie Wexler’s The Writing Revolution method of instructional design, as well as a new type of vocabulary-building worksheet derived from the Common Core Standard on resolving issues in English usage) while cleaning out some aging folders in my toolbox for this blog.
A couple of days ago I discovered this lesson plan on argumentation that I intended as an assessment of students’ ability to assess arguments and use that assessment either to strengthen the argument or to develop a counterargument. I intended to begin this lesson with this context clues worksheet on the noun treatise. Finally, here is the worksheet at the center of this unit.
If you have used other of the lessons on argumentation I’ve posted over time, then you have some prior knowledge of this unit. I wrote the unit, and I think this lesson has a curiously unfinished quality about it. At some point, I will have an opportunity to review and bring great cohesion to the unit as a whole and to this lesson in particular. So, this material may show up here again in a more-developed form.

Last but not least this morning, here is a context clues worksheet on the verb impinge, which is apparently only used intransitively.

Despite the fact that it remains a piece of the American vernacular, I don’t know how important it is that student know this word. Nonetheless, here is a context clues worksheet on the noun henchman. I will say this, as I consider this document: when I taught in New York City, the vanishingly few upperclassmen I taught, almost to a one, tended to refer to their youngest peers in the institution as “freshmans.” This worksheet might be best, I suppose, paired with the plural “henchmen” somehow to make sure students understand that the noun “man” declines, in the plural, to “men,” not matter where in a word it is found.

While it’s probably not a word students need to know before they leave high school, this context clues worksheet on the noun imbroglio might nonetheless be of some use. If nothing else, the word possesses a nice onomatopoeic quality.

Because they came up frequently in various social studies classes I co-taught in New York City, I wrote these two context clues worksheets on the noun heretic and the adjective heretical. I was going to comment that I probably should have written another one on the noun heresy, but a glance in the folder that holds all these documents reveals I already did–it’s under that link.
It’s hard to imagine students understanding religious history, and particularly the history of the Roman Catholic Church.

Okay, Friday has rolled around again, and it is the end of a momentous week for this author. To make a long story short, I now own a car for the first time in almost 17 years.
This week’s Text, from my ongoing endeavor to write a couple of units on the art of argumentation and the craft of composing a synthetic research paper, is a complete lesson plan on the art of quoting in a paper. I wrote this context clues worksheet on criterion and criteria, which are, respectively, a singular and a plural noun, specifically for this lesson. As I look at this document today, I realize that depending on how one deals with it, and who one is teaching, that this worksheet could stand on its own as a lesson (and I have one on datum and data in the works). Finally, here is the worksheet that is at the center of this lesson and affords students an opportunity to try their hands directly at quoting within a larger body of text.
That’s it! It’s Friday the 13th, so step lightly and carefully.

Her, is a context clues worksheet on the noun hybrid. This is a word, I would think, that turns up in high school science classes.
