Today we will learn about: Build Concept Vocabulary Draw Conclusions Exaggeration Context Clues Grammar: Indefinite and Reflexive Pronouns Spelling: Related Words Follow and Clarify Directions Other Worlds
Draw Conclusions When you draw a conclusion, you form a reasonable opinion about what you have read. Use what you know about real life to help you draw conclusions. Be sure that there are enough facts or information in the text to support your conclusions.
Exaggeration Exaggeration is something overstated and made greater than it actually is. An author can use exaggeration to emphasize a point for either serious or comic effect. In Space Cadets, exaggeration is mostly used for comedic effect.
Exaggeration Exaggeration does not often signal itself. It is up to the reader to recognize it and infer its purpose. Understatement is the opposite of exaggeration, or hyperbole. Unlike exaggeration, it is done almost exclusively for humorous or satiric effect.
Context Clues You may come across a word that has more than one meaning when reading. In this case, you will have to look for context clues to determine the correct meaning of the word.
