FAQ
What is the difference between drawing a conclusion and making an inference?⌄
An inference fills in information not stated directly; a conclusion is a reasoned judgment based on all available evidence — both require critical thinking beyond the literal text.
How do teachers scaffold inference-making for 2nd graders?⌄
Sentence frames like 'The text says ___, so I think ___' or 'I know ___ from the text, which makes me think ___' help students structure their inferential thinking.
What types of texts work best for teaching inferences in 2nd grade?⌄
Short stories with implied character feelings, wordless picture books, and passages where the author hints rather than states directly are all excellent for inference practice.
