The document provides instructions for students to analyze words from a passage and determine if they are definitions or restatements. Students are directed to sort words from a passage into two piles based on their meaning, fill out a graphic organizer with their answers, check their work against a help sheet, highlight context clues, and note whether each highlighted word is a definition or restatement on a T-chart. They are then asked to submit their completed worksheet for review.
