Select And Demonstrate

Multiple Word Meanings #11

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is an educational tool that assists students in learning about words that have more than one meaning. The top part presents sentences with a bold word, and the students are required to choose the correct definition of this word from two provided options, based on the context of the sentence. For instance, the word “stoop” in the first sentence could mean a porch with steps or the action of bending one’s body forward. The bottom part of the worksheet asks students to write sentences that show the different meanings of given words, enhancing their understanding through active application.

The worksheet is designed to deepen students’ comprehension of homonyms by not only selecting the correct definition in context but also by constructing sentences that illustrate each meaning of a given word. This activity helps students to recognize the complexity of language and the importance of context in determining meaning. It also encourages them to engage with vocabulary actively, which aids in memorizing and properly utilizing words with multiple meanings. By practicing with this worksheet, students enhance both their analytical thinking and their language skills.
