CONTEXT CLUES
By: Maribel Azote Cabalan - Buco
Tick tock, tick tock, I am stuck!
How can I unlock? How can I unlock?
When unfamiliar words are the ones that block!
Strategize, strategize, vocabulary wisel
Familiarize, familiarize, the words that arise
Hints here, signals there, clues are everywhere
Categorize, conceptualize, and then contextualize
Context clues are the ones that guide.
