3rd Grade Reading focuses on developing foundational reading skills, comprehension, and a love for literature through engaging texts and activities.
Sometimes, an author doesn't tell you everything. Making inferences means using clues from the text and your own knowledge to figure out things that aren't directly stated.
Inferences help you understand characters’ feelings, hidden problems, or the lesson of the story.
You make inferences when guessing how a friend feels or figuring out a mystery in a movie!
Figuring out that a character is sad because it says she had tears in her eyes.
Guessing it’s winter because the characters are building a snowman.
Inferences are educated guesses based on what you read and know.
