Introducing our Inferencing with Pictures PowerPoint Mini Lesson: Making Inferences for 3rd 4th 5th Grade--Making inferences when reading can be a challenge for some students. One effective way to teach inferencing is to scaffold your instruction by helping students infer with pictures first. Then build up to making inferences with mini passages. That's what this lesson helps you accomplish!

This EDITABLE Power Point slide show can be used as an intro for teaching inferences. YOU SAVE SO MUCH TIME by having a full lesson with teaching notes ready to go!

✅ This resource is designed to:

• Be used as a whole class mini-lesson for inferencing.
• Help students connect inferencing with pictures to inferencing with text.
• Work with any other inferencing activity or lesson you want to teach.

• Student Response Sheets for kids to follow along with the slides
• Teacher Guide for how to use/ edit the slide show features

✅ This slideshow works best for whole-group instruction rather than for small groups or literacy centers.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐What Other Teachers Are Saying:

• This enhances the learning in the classroom. It also helped a great deal with lesson planning, making my weekends become mine again rather than devoted to school work. -Tammie

• I love this resource! I had been struggling with where to start with inferencing and how to teach it in my speech therapy sessions but this was exactly what I was looking for! -Emily

• My students enjoyed using this resource and they were very engaged. The stories were great and was exactly what I needed for my classroom. Thank you! I love your resources! -Debra

• Mixed virtual class - Adv 4th grade ELA, the students (some actually below grade level, but still put into the class) all enjoyed working through this as a class. Even my TAG students (who are all skipping 5th grade this year) had fun with it. Definitely a good resource to use virtually; I liked how it stimulated conversation for all levels. Thanks! -Felicia

• My students loved working through the slides and making inferences about the pictures. It allowed me to see that the inferences they were making were very thoughtful. They often looked for the obscure instead of what was right in front of them. This led to some great discussions. -Karin
