In this lesson, students studied, learned and practiced the following:
1- Engage: brief introduction of the skill with a quote related to it to engage students and encourage them to paraphrase it, state their opinions and justify their answers though a short panel discussion. Students have shown deep understanding of the topic given, ability to read between the lines and provide good comments. (5 min.)

 2- Explore & Explain: display a short instructional video of maximum 3 to 5 minutes to explore on their own about the skill of using context clues. Though the video introduces the explanation of the skill in short time; however, it was enough to communicate it in a well-explained way, followed by a panel discussion to test their understanding. (3 -5 min.)
  3- Elaborate: solve and answer a worksheet with leveled critical thinking questions as per the DOK’s level to reflect and analyze their deep understanding of the skill. The main activity is based on MCQ’s which follows the learning process where students are to read 10 sentences with unfamiliar words and identify the context clue of each word to figure out its meaning. (25-35 min)

4- Evaluate: use an Exit Ticket to check the student’s understanding on the platform quizizz.com which is not only handy and practical, but also effective. (5 min.)
