I have used a book of riddles which lends itself wonderfully to inferring. It is: When Riddles Come Rumbling: Poems to Ponder by Rebecca Kai Dotlich and Karen Dugan. The poems have a border around them which I take away so that the students use just the words and context to infer. I use this as a way to model how I "leave my tracks of thinking " as Chryse Hutchins presented in a comprehension training I went to last year (also author of 7 Keys to Comprehension).
