Context clues are clues that can be found in the text around the word in question. An example:
Let's say we have a marble. If we compare the marble to a baseball in one sentence, and then describe the marble as minuscule in the next sentence, it can be concluded that the marble is smaller than the baseball, and that minuscule means small.
