Tiny Clue Hunt

Students read each sentence and decide whether to use “little,” “a little,” or “the little” to complete it accurately. Context clues guide learners to understand subtle tone differences-whether describing scarcity, some amount, or something specific. The worksheet promotes close reading, grammar precision, and vocabulary awareness. Learners practice distinguishing between negative, positive, and specific uses of quantity expressions.
