The illustrator makes choices about how to draw or paint for the text. Art can help you understand the setting, characters, mood, and plot of a story. Sometimes the art shows additional details or information that are not in the text. Context Clues When a word you don’t seem to make sense in a sentence, it may be a multiple-meaning word. Look for context clues and predict other possible meanings. Write two meanings for each multiple choice word and circle the meaning used in the story.
