This learning resource focuses on the concept of making inferences within the context of language preservation, specifically through the character Sarah's engagement with Gwich'in storytelling. It aims to guide students in understanding how to extract meaning from textual evidence and use the Claim, Evidence, Reasoning (CER) model to articulate their thoughts. The resource encourages students to identify clues that indicate Sarah's commitment to learning Gwich'in, analyze Elder Joe's storytelling, and reflect on the importance of language in preserving culture and identity. Students will be able to complete inference logs based on textual evidence, promoting critical thinking and deeper comprehension of the material.
