Assess students' ability to apply context clues and morphological analysis (prefixes, suffixes, roots) to determine meanings of unfamiliar words in grade 6–8 fiction and nonfiction passages. Quiz items require identifying word parts, inferring meaning from surrounding sentences, selecting definitions in multiple-choice items, and writing short justifications that cite context or morphological evidence. Focus includes common Greek/Latin roots, frequent affixes, and a range of sentence-level contexts to measure applied vocabulary strategy use.
