More Inferencing Ideas!

Here is a preview of the mini lesson

Sample of what the kids will do with their "evidence"

Last week had a bit of a theme- INFERENCING! With our reading series here at school (Treasures) we talked about inferencing last week and I searched and searched for some fun and interesting activities I could use to really teach me munchkins about making good inferences. Well, I searched and I found! I love teaching blogs for that reason! You can search for anything, absolutly anything, and find it! I found a few great lessons. One lesson I shared with y'all yesterday from The Inspired Apple titled, What's in my Teacher's Bag? That one started inferencing off on a high note with my kiddos. On Friday I like to try and do a little different craft or activity that is special. Last Friday we became official 'Inference Investigators" and we went on a mission. I found this ADORABLY cute lesson from The Inspired Apple again! (Abby has it all y'all!) She had a lesson called "Snow Day Case Files" on Teachers Pay Teachers. I saw Cara from the The First Grade Parade had a post about how her class loved this activity and thought I'd give it a try. And, its a winner people! I've even shared it with a teacher at my school in 3rd grade- it's multi age appropriate! So visit Abby at The Inspired Apple and become "Inference Investigators" in your classroom!

Need a good and easy inferencing lesson?

Happy Sunday!

 I just have to share a super cute and super easy inferencing lesson I found at The Inspired Apple ! When I say super easy, I mean SUPER easy. You can print her response sheet (as seen above) for each child in your class and pull out that huge teacher tote you carry around and that's ALL you need for this lesson! Here is a link to her inferencing lesson, What's in my Teacher's Bag? Try it out and enjoy! My munchkins loved every minute of it! :) Abby has some fantastic ideas for primary grades so be sure to check her out!
