  2. Drawing Conclusions/Inferences 8th Grade English Mrs. Reeves

  3. Lesson Essential Question: • How are conclusions drawn and inferences made?

  4. Conclusions • You make decisions based on clearly expressed facts or evidence. • Example: • Garrett Morgan owned businesses and a car, and he sold his traffic signal patent for $40,000. • Conclusion: He was financially successful.

  5. Inferences • You make decisions based on evidence that is only hinted at or implied on what you have read • Example: • Carol had a snow day from school. Mom helped her put on her jacket, boots, and hat. They went outside and made a snowman. Then they took a ride on the sled. • Inference: It is winter and it snowed,

  6. Valid Conclusion • A conclusion that is based on facts, evidence, or logic. • Example: All birds lay eggs. A robin is a bird. Conclusion: _____________________________________

  7. Invalid conclusion • Is not based on logical reasoning, and is not grounded on facts or evidence.

  8. How to Draw Conclusions • 1. Gather all the evidence. • What facts or details have you learned about the subject? • 2. Evaluate the evidence. • What do the facts and details you have gathered tell you about the subject? • 3. Make appropriate connections and draw reasonable conclusions. • What can you reasonably conclude from the evidence that you have gathered and evaluated?
