Reading Techniques

Inferences

In this unit you will practice making inferences. This means you will guess the answer to a question or guess the meaning of the text, based on the information you know already. You need to ‘read between the lines’ of the story.

Clues + Your experience = Logical Conclusion

Content + Schema = Inference

Try this inference puzzle.

A useful way to practice this is to do logic puzzles. Try this one:
