The inferring and predicting posters are the same, is this correct??
Michelle Jenkins · Feb 18th, 2018
Yes, Michelle, the text is the same. Two different options have been provided as some teachers use the terminology ‘predicting’ and some use ‘inferring’.

Hello,
A comment about the pack, specifically the ‘inferring’ poster (this is the same with the other comprehension strategies pack). What is the rationale behind describing the skill inferring as a reader questioning what they think and feel about text? I am under the impression that inferring is a bit different to that.
Inferring is using a reader’s own background knowledge as well as clues from the text to work out what is not explicitly stated.
Example:
Ann dribbled the orange ball down the court.
We can infer that Ann is playing basketball because the text says she is on a court, and the ball is orange. We also know ourselves that basketball is played with an orange ball. At no point during that process am I asking myself what I think and feel about the text. To me, that process is more evaluating than inferring.
I’m a little confused as I don’t see the connection between that and the poster provided above.
Thanks for clarifying
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan
Thanks for your comment, you make a really great point! We’ve updated the pack now to include an alternate version of the inferring poster.
Cheers

Hi, could you please make a ‘Monitoring’ card/poster as this was one of the original Super 6 Startegies. It could read, ‘Stop and think about the text.’ Thanks guys.
