Anchor Summary:
This anchor standard focuses on understanding the meanings of words and phrases using different clues. You can figure out what a word means by looking at the words around it or its position in a sentence. Sometimes, you can use the overall meaning of a paragraph or the cause and effect in a story to understand a word. You can also use dictionaries, both in print and online, to find out the pronunciation, meaning, and part of speech of a word. Learning about prefixes, like un- or re-, and roots, like spect, can also help you understand words better. By paying attention to how words are used in different contexts, you'll become a word detective and expand your vocabulary.
