What Is an Inference?

Are your students beginning to learn about inferencing? Teaching students how to use this active reading strategy can be a bit tricky for young learners! Let’s take a quick look at what an inference is and why it is an important reading comprehension skill!

An inference is the process of using evidence or information presented to draw conclusions, make educated guesses, or reach logical deductions, even if it’s not explicitly stated. In the classroom, it’s teaching students to analyze text, identify clues, and use their prior knowledge to understand implicit meanings or make predictions about what might happen next. By teaching inference skills, students become more engaged readers, critical thinkers and better understand the deeper layers of written material beyond the surface level of information provided in the text.

Learn How to Make Inferences – With a Song!

If you are looking for a unique way to teach the definition of an inference, you have come to the right place! Teach Starter has created an original inference song to help your students understand the meaning of this activity reading comprehension strategy.

Songs offer a unique and effective way to engage students and enhance their learning experiences in various ways.

Memory Enhancement – Melodies and rhythms can aid memory retention. When information is set to a familiar tune, it becomes easier for students to recall facts, concepts or sequences.

Engagement and Attention – Songs capture attention and create a dynamic learning environment. They make learning enjoyable and help maintain students’ focus on the material being taught.

Reinforcement of Concepts – Songs reinforce learning by presenting information in a catchy, memorable format. They can summarise key points or introduce new concepts in a fun and engaging way.
