Description
Teaching reading comprehension strategies to beginning readers can be difficult. But with this scaffolded and differentiated resource, you will have everything you need to teach your students about finding text evidence, citing text evidence and making inferences using context clues. I like to call this Text Evidence 101! This text evidence and inferencing resource was purposefully designed to break these essential reading strategies into small parts and then slowly lead your students to independence. Teach your first and second graders how to find text evidence, how to cite text evidence and how to make inferences using context clues. Designed with the gradual release of responsibility in mind, this resource includes 5 differentiated levels so that you can meet each student right where they are. You can build your readers' independence with finding text evidence and making inferences by modeling what to do using the multiple scaffolded options. This Finding & Citing Text Evidence and Making Inferences using Context Clues resource includes lesson ideas, teaching resources, anchor charts, printable practice activities, a parent letter, answer keys, and more! You also get both a printable and digital version of the activities which provides even more versatility.
Set your readers up for success during independent, partner, and small group reading by teaching them how to find and use text evidence and how to make inferences using context clues. Very helpful for test prep, small group RTI intervention, guided reading, and whole group instruction. Make sure to read the feedback and download the preview!

⭐ This is FANTASTIC! I am always telling my kids to prove it... but with a group of struggling readers... they just look at me like I am CRAZY! This is going to be so helpful and makes the common core a little easier! Thanks for sharing your hard work... you have made my life a little easier!
⭐ I have owned this for years and used it multiple times. My students always really enjoy using it and it is really great at making them look closely at the text to find evidence. I return to this product every year and always has a great impact.
⭐ I LOVE this resource! Teaching inferences, proof and evidence is so difficult. After a lesson on this subject bombed, (the kids had no clue how to infer or find evidence), I found this resource and it has been a HUGE lifesaver!
