Middle School Reading Homework

Meaningful vocabulary:

I created these worksheets to allow students to use to context clues to find the meaning of unknown words. Students will find the given words within the novel "A Christmas Carol" and record the sentence in which the word can be found. Page numbers are provided to help with locating words. (Stave 2-5)

Students have the option to discuss the meaning of the words. They can either look up the meaning of the word or use context clues to define the words on their own.

I had the students complete these sheets after reading the section of the book, therefore the page numbers were helpful.

What's included:

• Worksheets for each of the five staves of "A Christmas Carol".

How is the product useful:

• Low prep for teacher.
• Page numbers guide students to finding the words within the text.
