Foldable Inferencing Template
A template for students to use when making inferences.
Making inferences is a crucial skill for students to develop. It allows them to go deeper with their comprehension and can even help develop prediction skills in other subject areas, such as patterns in Math and Science.
With this template, students will combine their background knowledge with text evidence to make an inference.
How to print this resource:
Print pages 2 and 3 front and back, and choose for it to flip along the long edge. This will ensure the template prints correctly.
