For the month of February our class is learning all about how to make inferences when reading both fiction and nonfiction texts! We’ve been searching for clues in our books, and taking time to observe, wonder, and infer. When we infer, we want to make an educated guess or conclusion using evidence from the text. Through inferring, students learn to read between the lines, make predictions, and draw logical conclusions, enhancing their comprehension and critical thinking abilities. This skill empowers young readers to engage more deeply with texts, interpret characters' emotions and motivations, and understand the underlying themes and messages of the story. We’ve been inferring a great deal with our read aloud Because of Winn-Dixie, and Kate DiCamillo definitely leaves a lot of space for inferring in her book!
