Stormy Word Hunt Answer Key

Students read a short passage about a thunderstorm and examine bolded vocabulary words that carry implied meanings. For each word, they identify the explicit textual clues that hint at its meaning and then infer the implied definition. This worksheet combines context clue analysis with inferential reasoning to deepen vocabulary understanding. It strengthens students’ ability to interpret descriptive language and make meaning from context rather than direct explanation.
