Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Practice the reasoning steps of making an inference (why, where, when, what will happen) once given a sentence to analyse

Teaching tips

  • Supply your own sentence (from a current read-aloud, content-area text, or one you write) in the blank space before copying the organiser, since none is printed in the file.

  • Use the three included copies across a week to give students repeated practice with the same four-question inference process.

Skills covered

  • Inference reasoning — students work through why, where, when, and what-will-happen prompts to explain what a given sentence implies beyond its literal words.
