What does it mean to infer? • An inference is when you know something that the author hasn’t told you in words. • The author leaves clues, the reader searches for clues ( like a detective) and puts the clues together with their experiences (background knowledge) to make an inference
“Hmmm, what do I already know that can help me figure this out?”
