Objective: By the end of class, students will make inferences and predictions and review plot structure for fiction in order to improve reading comprehensive skills.
DO NOW
Write the definitions to the following terms in your notebook
Inference (to infer) - an inference is a when one comes to a conclusion based on evidence and or past knowledge of the world.
Prediction - to make an educated guess about what might happen in the future.
Direct Instruction
The difference between an inference and a prediction is that a prediction refers to something that may happen in the future, and can ultimately (in the end) be proven right or wrong. An inference is trying to figure out what is going on at the current moment and can't really be proved.
When you infer what is happening, it is easier to make a prediction about what will happen next!
