    This document provides a sample module for grade 6 students on making inferences from visual artworks and texts. It includes a 1 hour lesson plan with two activities. In the first activity, students analyze details in two works of art and make inferences, filling out a worksheet. In the second activity, students do the same using quotes from books they are reading, explaining their inferences. The goal is to help students practice distinguishing what is explicitly stated from what can be inferred, and using clues and background knowledge to make logical inferences.

    Dear NSTP students, This is just a sample of the module format that we want you to prepare.

    Please include activities/worksheets for the grade six students to work. The worksheets will serve as your assessment tool. Thanks. MODULE III
    Reading Skill: Predicting and/or Inferring Skill Making (making inferences 1) Objectives: a. Use information stated explicitly in the text to draw conclusions and make inferences.
    b. Make inferences based on explicit and implied information. c. Make inferences based on explicit and implied information.

    Time 1 hour Materials:


    Two works of fine art for display as an overhead projection Copies of the attached I See and I Infer worksheet Copies of the attached I Read and I Infer worksheet Book being currently read by each student (either individual choice, literature-circle selection, or class reading)

    Lesson Before doing this lesson, select two works of art full of detail and emotion. Generally speaking, works depicting people are more effective. Tornado over Kansas by John Steuart Curry (available at http://www.muskegonartmuseum.org/permanent007.htm) is a good selection. 1. Begin the lesson by asking students to define the word inference. Tell students that in this lesson, they will practice making inferences. 2. Show students the first art work, and ask them what they see. Students may jump ahead to making inferences (e.g., He looks frightened.), and if they

    do, simply probe for the detail that sparked the comment by asking questions such as, What do you see that makes you say that? 3. Ask students to distinguish what they infer from what they actually see. In Tornado Over Kansas, for example, they might see that a toy wagon is being left behind, but they might infer that the children find it less important than their pets. After discussing the painting, point out that people make inferences all the timethey notice (see) things in the world around them, add this data to what they already know, and make an inference. 4. Tell students they will now practice making inferences. Guide them in completing the I See and I Infer worksheet. In column one, students should identify a detail from the painting, and in column two, they should write a logical inference based on that detail. (For example: I see... The mother is wearing an oldfashioned dress. and I infer... This event is taking place in the past.). 5. Show students the second art work. Have students complete the I See and I Infer worksheet for it. Circulate to assist as necessary. 6. When students are finished, have volunteers share some of their inferences.

    7. Remind students that they do the same thing when they are readingi.e., they
    notice something and then make an inference based on what they read and what

    they already know.


    8. Tell students they will now do a similar activity using quotes or details from a book they are reading instead of paintings. Tell students to go back to a section they have already read (the beginning frequently works well), write down on the I Read and I Infer worksheet three to six sentences or short groups of sentences, and write corresponding inferences they made from these sentences. Tell them also to explain why they made each inference. 9. Close the lesson by reminding students that their job as readers is to make inferences based on what the text says and what they already knowi.e., their background knowledge.

    Worksheet 1 I See and I Infer Fill out the graphic organizer below: 1. In column 1, write a detail you notice in the painting. 2. In column 2, write a logical inference based on that detail. I read I infer

    Worksheet 2 I Read and I Infer Fill out the graphic organizer below: 1. In column 1, write a sentence or group of sentences from which you can infer something. 2. In column 2, write a logical inference based on that sentence, and explain why you infer this. I read I infer
