Lesson 5: Tangerine

Find one word from the text that you can’t understand. Write the word. Use context clues to guess the meaning and write your guess down. Check the definition in a dictionary. Put a check next to the definition if you are correct. Fix the definition if you need to add more or change it. Reread the sentence from the book that has the word in it. Write the word in a new sentence.
