Inference and Prediction
Draw inferences, predict likely events and support answers with precise evidence from across a text.
Try these first
- Infer: 'Amir reread the message, then quietly packed his bag.' What might he have decided?
- Evidence: Which action is strongest evidence for your inference?
- Predict: Predict what may happen next and cite a clue.
Try it, then check your answer
You can try these without a profile. Create a private learning profile if you want checked answers to build a mastery map and Mistake Memory.
