inferences drawn from the text. LAFS.7.RI.2.4- Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative, connotative,

and technical meanings; analyze the impact of a specific word choice on meaning and tone. LAFS.7.RI.3.7- Compare and contrast a text to an audio, video, or multimedia version of the text, analyzing each

medium’s portrayal of the subject (e.g., how the delivery of a speech affects the impact of the words).

clue to the meaning of a word or phrase. b. Use common, grade-appropriate Greek or Latin affixes and roots as clues to the meaning of a word (e.g., belligerent,

bellicose, rebel). c. Consult general and specialized reference materials (e.g., dictionaries, glossaries, thesauruses), both print and

digital, to find the pronunciation of a word or determine or clarify its precise meaning or its part of speech. d. Verify the preliminary determination of the meaning of a word or phrase (e.g., by checking the inferred meaning in

context or in a dictionary). LAFS.7.L.3.5- Demonstrate understanding of figurative language, word relationships, and nuances in word meanings. a.
