LC: Explain the meaning of key vocabulary within the context of the text.
What strategies do we use to try to work out the meaning of aword from the context?
Context clues are hints in the text that you can use to infer meanings of specific words or phrases. They’re really useful when you need to decipher new vocabulary, so you don’t have to whip out a dictionary every time.
Example: After running through the forest, my hair is completely dishevelled.
“This is a covert mission. No-one must know about it,” explained the Army Officer.
Reread chapter 1, then have a go at working out the meaning of the words underneath, finding them in the text and using the clues around the words to help you.
P4 What do you think the word ‘delicacies’ means? Why?
p.6 – What do you think the word ‘miniature’ means? Why?
p.6 What do you think the word ‘reluctantly’ means? Why?
p7 – What do you think ‘proceeded’ means?

Do you know that there is a broad range of different jobs/careers that people can have; that people often have more than one career/type of job during their life?
Talk with your partner and make a list of as many different jobs that you can think of. List them on a whiteboard.
Now let's share - how many did we think of? If you were going to group the jobs, what category would each one fit into, for example dentist and nurse would fit into the category of health care.
Rea through the descriptions of the different jobs listed on this PDF. Think about - are you surprised by any of them? Do you know anyone who has a job the same as or similar to any of the ones you read about? Are there any jobs that you thought would be an interesting choice for you? Are there any skills that you would like to develop that would help you if wou wanted to choose one of these jobs?
Now let's share our thoughts.
