Inference Graphic Organizer"The inference graphic organizer is the most critical of all graphic organizers because it moves students beyond just recording information from the text to helping them make inferences about what they have read." (Miller & Vaetch, 2011) Students record details from the text+ reflecting on what they already know= Inferring. Teachers should utilize this strategy into teaching content so It probes students to think beyond the text and make sense of something new. Students can infer texts from using their prior knowledge, new learning, or help from others.
An inference is a reasonable guess based on information. Making an inference is some- times called “reading between the lines,” because the inference is not stated directly in the information you have. The information leads you to an inference.
