Determining the meaning of a word based on context clues or marking how the meaning of a term evolves in the course of a document can be a challenge in more complex text. Give your pupils an opportunity to practice this skill with a series of exercises that are based on an article from the Indiana Law Journal and an essay entitled “Find Water for Survival in Extreme Cold.” Learners could use the provided quiz as a close reading exercise or as a group activity.
