monitoring meaning
This challenge will put your word solving skills to the test. What do you do when you come up against an unknown word? Do you skip it? Do you take a wild guess? Or, do you employ some critical word solving skills to handle it? We don't often carry a dictionary around with us, so how do you find meaning when you encounter new language. The best strategy we have come up with is to use the context and make a determination of what the word must mean in that context. Here are six excerpts from the article, each containing a challenging word. On your Keynote, explain what you think the word means and be sure to explain why you think that.

5. "I shook his [Matt's] dad's hands, we had tears streaming down our faces and we're both grown men. It was a touching moment. I'd never seen anything like this and had never seen a kid stand up like he did. Matt stood by what's right."
6. "It doesn't look good on Prince George and it doesn't look good on Prince George minor hockey. All this came to light Monday afternoon and Tuesday. We're volunteers and we have to work during the day and deal with this stuff when we have free time in the evening. Hopefully by the next two or three days it's done."
