Number the Stars Vocabulary resource was designed to help students learn new vocabulary in Number the Stars by Lois Lowry by using context clues. Instead of simply providing a vocabulary list with definitions, this resource helps students hone their skills in using context clues to determine the meaning of new words as they are used within the novel. This resource includes a vocabulary booklet organized by chapter sets where students read the new word in a quote from the novel and infer its meaning. Then, they look up the definition to see if they were correct. Presentation slides are included for easy class review or grading.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Another great resource to help with comprehension and an extra lesson to really help secure understanding.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The vocabulary made differentiating for my ELLs and Read 180 students so much easier than other vocabulary lists I've found or created myself.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Love the set-up of this activity-it uses vocabulary in context and has the kids try to figure out the definition based on that context. This is exactly how I want my kids tackling words while reading. Thank you!
