ABOUT THIS RESOURCE

★ Inference Graphic Organizer

★ 2 pages

★ PDF File

★ Suitable for any text or grade

This resource includes:

★ 2 Making Inferences Graphic Organizers (containing Post-It clip art)

These graphic organizers are designed to support students in making inferences using any text under study. As they read, students will make an inference and provide two details, then write explanations for details. This is an excellent tool to help students gather important information before writing a response. The first graphic organizer does not include evidence and explanation sentence stems to help students develop their writing, while the second graphic organizer does - which will help support differentiation in the classroom!

These graphic organizers can be used in whole group instruction, small group instruction, and with novel groups/literature circles. These graphic organizers can also be assigned as a "Purpose for Reading" during silent reading time, classwork, or homework!
