What is the best way to teach students how to infer?

  1. Ask them to write inferences

  2. Give them inference worksheets

  3. Model it for them

  4. Read aloud to them

The correct answer is: Model it for them

Providing a model of the inference process is the best way to teach students how to infer. This is because simply asking students to write inferences or giving them inference worksheets may not provide them with enough guidance on how to make inferences. Additionally, reading aloud to them may not give students the opportunity to actively engage in the inference process and may not enable them to develop their own reasoning skills. Therefore, choosing a model that can both demonstrate the process and allow students to practice and actively engage in the inference process is the most effective approach.
