Successful Readers…. Read with intonation that is appropriate for the text. Use context to determine the proper intonation to use.
“The Goops”- Choral read the poem The Goops they lick their fingers, And the Goops they lick their knives; They spill their broth on the tablecloth- Oh, they lead disgusting lives! The Goops they talk while eating, And loud and fast they chew; And that is why I am glad that I Am not a Goop-are you? The Goops are gluttonous and rude, They gug and gumble with their food; They throw their crumbs upon the floor, And at dessert they tease for more; They will not eat their soup and bread But like to gobble sweets, instead, And this is why I oft decline, When I am asked to stay and dine!

Authors of fiction do not always state everything that is happening in a story. An inference is a connection that a reader makes between information the author gives and what the reader already knows. Text Clues + Background Knowledge=Inference
