"Headbandz" to practice context clues!

Last week, students learned how to play "Headbandz".  Ask your child about the game we played to practice context clues! The student in the "Hot Seat" wears a handband with a mystery word. Classmates have to use context clues in the text to giver his/her classmates hints so he/she can guess the word!

 Even Mr. Hodge took a round in the "Hot Seat"! His mystery word was  ocean. What are some clues that you gave him to get him to say his mystery word? Think of synonyms, antonyms, examples and non-examples.
