I used this resource to teach making inferences within Esperanza Rising. This only covers the first few chapters of the text.

Forge by Laurie Halse Anderson This PARCC-like activity asks students to pick the best descriptor that contrasts the reactions of Eben and Curzon to the British defeat. They then have to choose the best piece of text evidence to support the descriptor that they chose. This is set up very PARCC-like with Part A and Part B questioning strategies. There are two different worksheets with answer key! I use the first one to teach the concept and the second one as a demonstration of learning. Edita

This PowerPoint corresponds with 2nd Grade Superkids Reading Curriculum. The PowerPoint is designed for co-teaching which is why there are hearts or stars at the bottom of each slide. However, those can be removed and the slide show is fully editable!

I used this to practice making inferences from Esperanza Rising. The specific task they were asked to do was to make inferences based on how various characters are responding to challenges using text evidence. This was done as a whole group activity to practice our skills. There are two pages technically to the document but the second page is blank.

Learning targets are created for Word Work, Reading, and Writing for the entire Goodbye Summer Unit. Editable!
