Jan I love the story Salvadore Late or Early - it's a short story from
Sandra Cisneros's book Woman Hollering Creek. It is short and poignant,
lots to infer, kids would make many connections, have quesitons. I LOVE
THIS STORY!!! And know adolescents would as well.

I am looking for a brief reading to use to work with students on inferring.
Can any of you share your favorites?
Thanks!

I am looking for a brief reading to use to work with students on
inferring.
Can any of you share your favorites?
Thanks!

I like to tell kids that they can look in 3 places to infer. They can look at
1. description 2. character actions and 3. character dialogue. I have found
that looking at these 3 and asking students to think off the page has helped
to make inferring more concrete. One of my favorite Read Alouds
I can't wait to try this. What books do you recommend?

to be nobody but yourself -- in a world which is doing its best, night
and day, to make you like everybody else -- means to fight the hardest
battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting.

Ginger, What great lessons. I also teach second grade and am working
on inferring. Could you share what text you used for your groups and
possibly point out some of the places the students needed to infer?
Thank
he really got
it and wanted me to know. I hope this makes sense.
Once again, thanks for all you do.
