Teaching Inference

Involved in the Reading and Writing Project's Unit 5...Series Clubs and working on having kids infer giving text evidence. I have always found that teaching kids, especially 2nd graders, to do this kind of work as readers is such a challenge. Not only for them but for me as well. Each year each group is so different. I have a lot (10) of struggling readers and have them working on word attack and simple beginning reader strategies. They are just simply, not ready for inference work at their independent levels.  Just my thought for the day.

PEACE,
Carol
