Inferences: Can You Make Them?


Inferening is a skill students need to practice.  Its really teaching students how to think using logic and evidence.  Students do it all the time.  However, for some reason when you aske them to apply this concept to a reading selection they make it harder then it really is, don't t ask me why?  I work on this one all year.   If you want students to learn how to make inferences in literature, nonfiction and real life, and to support those inferences with strong, reliable evidence my suggestion is to start working on it NOW. Here is a great tool to help,..watch Mister Sato's take on INFERENCING!
