I chose to try the context clues strategy to build my vocabulary. This involves using surrounding words or phrases to infer the meaning of unfamiliar words.The strategy worked well for me. When I encountered unknown words, I looked at the surrounding context to understand their meanings. This helped me learn words like "perspicacious" (having a keen understanding) and "enervating" (causing fatigue).
New Words Learned
1. Perspicacious
2. Enervating
3. Fastidious (meticulous)
*Effectiveness*
Using context clues helped me:
1. Improve comprehension
2. Expand vocabulary
3. Develop critical thinking
I'll continue using this strategy to enhance my vocabulary skills.
