Description
Help students develop stronger inferences by showing them HOW to come up with an inference, and HOW to check their inference to make it stronger. There's more to inferring (or inferencing) than simply reading between the lines. Some inferences are better than others.
IMPORTANT June 30, 2022 UPDATE!
- Please don't buy this version: It is an older TpT Google Drive™ Folder resource. I will be deactivating this resource in the future. (If you've already purchased it, don't worry. You will still have access to all of the Google Drive files.)
- Instead, please get the newer digital download product. It has everything PLUS the EASEL by TpT digital learning version.
- The newer version is on SALE (for now) as I convert my resources to this digital download format.
- If you purchased this older Google Drive™ resource in the past, please email me at Mike@educircles.org
If you have any questions, please ask in the TpT Question section or email me at Mike@educircles.org
