Defining Words Within Context 
When an unknown word is likely to impair comprehension, the 
best time to introduce the word's definition is when it is encountered 
in the text. 
Using Context Clues 

---

Research by Nagy and Scott showed that students use contextual 
analysis to infer the meaning of a word by looking closely at 
surrounding text. Since students encounter such an enormous number 
of words as they read, some researchers believe that even a small 
improvement in the ability to use context clues has the potential to 
produce substantial, long-term vocabulary growth

Sketching the Words 
Making a brief doodle that ties the word to something personally 
important to the learner helps many pupils recall the meaning of a 
term. Each target word is applied to a fresh, familiar context by the 
student. A superb drawing does not require a lot of time from the 
pupil. The most crucial thing is that the sketch makes sense and assists 
the pupil in understanding the word's meaning. 
Applying the Target Words 
Putting the target words to use creates a new context for learning their 
meanings. When students are asked to apply the target words to their 
own lives, they have still another chance to grasp the meaning of each 
term on a personal level. This enables for in-depth analysis of each 
word's meaning. 
Analyzing Word Parts 
When pupils are faced with unfamiliar terminology, the ability to 
analyze word pieces is also beneficial. Students are more likely to 
understand a word comprising these word parts if they learn the 
meanings of root words and affixes. Explicit instruction in word parts
