Do any of you guys have any ideas?
in 300 words or less, identify and define the different types of context clues.

1. Definition/Explanation Clues. 
These are clues that are a word or phrase, and its meaning is explained right after its use. An example would be "Buckle, which is a store for male and females that sells jeans, shirts, and boots, is becoming more popular today."

2. Restatement/Synonym Clues.
This is a hard word or phrase said in a sympial way. An example of this is, "Dale was sent to the haberdashery to find a new suit. He needed one to wear to his Uncle's Wedding." Because the sentence say Dale would find a suit at the Haberdashery, we can conclude that a haberdashery is a place where clothes for men are sold. 

3. Contrast/Antonym Clues
Sometimes a word or phrase is clarified by the presentation of the opposite meaning somewhere close to its use. Look for signal words when applying context clues. An example of this would be, "Dale wanted to go to the haberdashery, but Ann wanted to shop at the boutique.” The signal word but tells the reader that an opposite thought is going to be stated.

4. Interference/General Context Clues
This is when a word or phrase is not immediately explained. The reader must look for clues within, before, and after the word or phrase is used. An example of this is, "The haberdashery was Dale's favorite place. He liked shopping for nice suites. The people who worked there were so kind and helpful." From this, we can tell that the haberdashery has to be a place that you can shop, and that is sells nice suites. 

5. Punctuation
We can also use clues of punctuation to infer meanings. Like quotation marks, dashes, parathe these, italics, and brackets. Examples of this are, "Tom's father was a haberdasher, or men's shop keeper, in the story." "Tom's father was a haberdasher (men's shop keeper) in the story." "In the story, Tom's father was a haberdasher- or men's shop keeper." "Tom's father was a "haberdasher". He had a clothing store for men." 

Hope this helps!! :)
