Inferring
We are learning how making inferences can help us understand what we read. Good readers determine meaning of unknown words by using their schema, paying attention to the text and picture clues, rereading and engaging in conversation with each other.
Good readers use their prior knowledge and clues from the text to draw conclusions and form their own ideas about the text.
Good readers infer meaning when the answers to questions are not directly (explicitly) stated in the text.
Good readers use the text to create their own ideas about a subject in order to deepen and enrich understanding.
And lastly good readers revise their images to add new information.
