Though abstract and difficult to model, inference is an important skill to teach students -- it's the gateway to the kind of higher-order, critical thinking students need to succeed in school and work.
How can we model how to draw conclusions with students? This book explores four inference strategies:
* Inductive learning
* Mystery
* Main Idea
* Investigation
From this point they list five principles and corresponding phases of implementation, and you may read Section 1: Why Inference?
This section provides a sample lesson plans as well as many great examples - sample word lists, text passages, graphic organizers - that will help you with future lessons...and may lead you to choose to purchase the book!
