This was an absolutely wonderful resource for helping my students classify statements as observations or inferences. I teach fourth grade, so I did pull some of the cards that may have been considered too mature or scary but even with those taken out I had plenty for the students to sort and then discuss. As we discussed them, the students really got the idea of the difference between the two and were moving cards we had not yet discussed as they realized they had made mistakes.
