This resource focuses on developing the skill of analyzing explicit information and drawing inferences from texts using textual evidence. It outlines learning objectives aimed at helping students understand key concepts, including explicit information and inferences, and introduces the 'inference equation' that combines explicit clues with background knowledge to reach logical conclusions. The resource includes examples, guided practices, and activities to reinforce skills in identifying risks and benefits of social media, as well as explicit evidence analysis in various contexts. Students are encouraged to use sentence frames to articulate their understanding, making connections between text evidence and inferences drawn.
